The title of the video is The Machine is US/ing us. I think think this title has to do with that technology like web 2.0 is moving so fast that we are having to keep learning to pace ourselves with is. The pace is in fact owning us. Web 2.0 has so many features that you can almost live your life on it.
Web 2.0 affects people in the workforce because they have to always research to find out what is new on the web and keep relearning all the new things that are coming out. This create alot of anxiety because they will have to stay up to date while keeping up with their job and taking care of house hold items. Web 2.0 affects people that are trying to enter the workforce inthat they have to already be up to date on it so they can get a job, especially a job that deals with computers. If they are not up to date it will be very hard to get that kind of job. Even if they majored in technology in college, it won't even matter because technology has changed so much.
Web 2.0 can actually be used for some good reasons like communication, but I am scared of where the web is taking us. It is starting to control us, because we can not control it. Anyone can publish anything they want on it, and it is totally impossible to have someone check all of the stuff that is being published. It seems like everyday a new thing comes out on the web that you have to get used to. We will have to rethink how we can control this moving force. It is always comes out with new stuff that makes us have to rethink legality issues, copyright issues, and several other issues. When will it end and where will it take us......
