[|"What is Web 2.0?"] from the O'Reilly Group, the team that coined the term to begin with [|Web 2.0 as understood by Paul Graham] a somewhat cynical (and skeptical) view of it all!

[|Wikipedia about Web 2.0] because it's fun to use Web 2.0 to define Web 2.0

Videos on Web 2.0 from Michael Wesch ("Web 2.0... The Machine is Us/ing Us", "Information R/evolution", and "A Vision of Students Today") These are all great illustrations of what's going on with 21st century learners (digital natives, etc.) and what they are and aren't able to get from us if we remain educators locked in a 19th or 20th century teaching model.

[|Hacking the Noosphere] from Jon Udell, with a plunge into the history that's brought us the Web 2.0 of today... and is still pushing us forward. (In other words, there are much deeper psychological urges being explored by we Internet users, as a collective intellect, than just uploading videos about Mentos.) It's an absolutely fascinating presentation, even if you're not a code-writing computer geek!
