If you are interested in the effects of the Internet on our culture, business models, and ways of thinking I have some videos to recommend to you. The first is a video of David Weinberger’s presentation at Google about the changes in the way we categorize and organize information. His presentation includes good explanations of Wikipedia’s strengths and well incorporated references to the work of philosophers such as Aristotle, Heidegger, and Wittgenstein.

The second video is a panel discussion regarding Andrew Keen’s book The Cult of the Amateur including one of my favorite tech commentators, Steve Gillmor. I found the discussion varied and thought-provoking with some interesting ideas put forth. Who needs C-SPAN?
