Two Great Videos in Plain English

Lee Lefever over at Common Craft has posted two nice videos about how and why to use new technology. Lee, who is also using the term “social design”, is obviously aware that not everybody is on the social media bandwagon yet. These videos are a great primer for folks who want an explanation of what RSS and Wikis actually are. They’re fun, too.

RSS in Plain English

Wikis in Plain English

Lee is doing some great work, focusing on the implications of social media for communities.

Check out my latest project: Make them Care!, a book on designing great sign-up experiences. Get reminded when it's published.

Hey Josh,
Thanks for the kind words. We’ve having a great time doing the videos. More to come…

A simple video on Web 2.0 (in plain English) would be good, specially to pass around to those PM and Execs who want to web 2.0ize their websites but have no idea what web 2.0 is.

I would really like to give that wiki lesson to my PM’s. But I am afraid they don’t know English well enough :-)
