What is very interesting to me about this video is not the sheer amount of connected people that are spreading it to their geek friends to watch but also it is one of those videos that might just explain to non techy folks how the internet works to a certain degree and why we are all excited about rss2 and web2 features (even if all they are really just mechanizms behind the scenes to interact and present things to the user nicer)- admittly xml and rss are amazing creations whatever way you look at it 2007 – the year people noticed geeks. We are fine tuning the world is tiny packets of data.
