Web 2.0 Expo NY presentations and videos

Even though I did not attend Web 2.0 Expo in NY, but my work colleague did, it's nice that there are videos and presentations already on the Net on this. There are videos from Blip.TV and presentation slides from O'Reilly (which sponsored and hosted the Web 2.0 Expo conference).

The most notable keynote I watched was that from Tim O'Reilly, the founder of O'Reilly Media and the person who coined Web 2.0, on Enterprise Radar. Tim was talking about how the Web meets the World, in that the valuable contributions and impact on Web 2.0 is not creating a gaming application for Facebook but using Web 2.0 technologies to help the world like for example in global warming, for helping detect weather storms and informing people, etc. Tim gave a challenge to users out there to make something that is useful for the world that is life changing. I think that is good advice.



Another video I saw was of Jay Adelson from Digg talking about the growth of collaborative filters. There wasn't really anything new here I found.

Mesh08 - Day 1 - Panel: The New Front Page

I left the online video workshop to come to the panel on the new front page. Daniel Burka from Digg and Pownce is talking about how the web is not replacing traditional media, and how traditional media like CNN is not linking or using Web 2.0 tools like Digg. I'm beginning to see how CTV and CBC.ca is now using Facebook and other social media technologies and bookmarking services for sharing content with others. Daniel is mentioning that Digg is having some content partnerships with media companies.
