    tw3, the slides are downloadable, but you cannot modified them. If you want the ppt file you must contact me.

    P.S. There are a lot of valuable things that you can’t modified in the world :-)

    When in Rome, why not let the Romans teach you?



    In Huangshan (黄山) southern Anhui province in Eastern China, Fu Shou-Bing logs on to the computer in the public library near his village. Since discovering ECpod.com (http://www.ECpod.com), the retired High School Chemistry teacher has been logging on almost every day to the English-Chinese teaching website. Sometimes he cycles the 25 miles home, cooks himself a simple lunch of rice and stir-fried vegetables with salted fish, often returning once again to the library and his new hobby in the evening.



    ECpod.com boasts an educational website that teaches members conversational English or Chinese (no 'this is an apple' stuff here) via video clips contributed by other members. After a vetting and often transcribing process by language tutors commissioned by the site, the clips are available free of charge in YouTube fashion. The twist? Members film each other in everyday activities, hoping other members will learn not just their native tongue, but also cultural innuendos lost in textbooks and more conventional means of language learning.



    'One member filmed himself cooking in his kitchen. We got a few emails asking what condiments he used,' says a bemused Warwick Hau, one of the site’s more public faces. One emailer even wanted to know if she could achieve the same Chinese stir-fry using ingredients from her regular CR Vanguard (华润超级) supermarket. 'We often forget our every day activities may not be as mundane to people on the other side of the world,' Hau adds. Another such clip is 'loaches' - a Chinese mother of 3 filmed her children and their friends playing with a bucket of loaches - slippery eel-like fish the children were picking up and gently squeezing between their fingers.



    Lately the members have also begun to make cross-border friends and contacts. The ECpal function works much the same way sites like Facebook.com and MySpace.com work - members can invite each other to view their clips and make friends. And it has its fair share of juvenile humor as well. “Farting Competition” features two teenagers and graphic sound effects. Within several days, the clip was one of the most popular videos that week, likely due to mass-forwarding by the participants’ schoolmates.



    For other members keen to learn more than the fact juvenile humor is similar everywhere, there are many home videos featuring unlikely little nuggets of wisdom. “The last thing I learned from the site is why you never find green caps for sale in China”, says Adam Schiedler one of the English language contributors to the site. Green caps signify cuckolded husbands, particularly shameful in China as they are a huge loss of face. Adam vows not to buy any green headgear for his newfound friends.



    The subject matter of the videos often speaks volumes about its contributors. Members choose their own content and film the clip wherever they please, some of their efforts drawing attention to rural surroundings and the quaint insides of little homes otherwise not seen unless you backpack your way thru the tiny dirt roads and villages along the Chinese countryside.



    Idyllic countrysides and cooking lessons aside however, ECpod marries the latest video sharing technology with the old school way of teaching a language - from the native speakers on the street. It’s a modern, more convenient alternative to spending 6 months in China. And why not let the Chinese teach you?

An introduction to Web 2.0: The User Role - Presentation Transcript

  1. (The User’s Voice in the second generation of the WWW) Francisco Llaneras Estrada November 2006
  2. What is Web 2.0? Web 2.0, refers to a supposed second generation of Internet-based services that emphasize online collaboration and sharing among users Source: wikipedia Tags: web2.0, presentation, slides
  3. Web 2.0 services: •  Social networks (flickr, youtube, 43things, slideshare) •  Web-based applications (Google docs, TimeTracker) •  Wikis (wikipedia) •  Blogs, photologs or podcasts (blogger) •  News promotion systems (digg, meneame, fresqui) •  Content managers (netvibes, del.icio.us, cannotea, refworks) •  Communication tools (basecamp, zoho project, meebo) •  Suscription systems (bloglines) •  Searchers based on tags (flickr, technorati) •  ... Tags: web2.0, services, examples
  4. Web 2.0 basic characteristics: •  Applications used entirely through a Web browser (access info) •  Users own the data on the site and exercise control (manage info) •  Users are encouraged to add value (create info) •  Some social-networking aspects are included (participate) •  A rich, interactive, user-friendly interface (easy to use) e.g. Encyclopedias: Microsoft Encarta vs wikipedia Tags: web2.0, characteristics, user
  5. Now, You are the protagonist Web-as-information-source VS web-as-participation-platform (access info) (access info) (create info) (promote info) (manage info) Access to info (generated by institutions or by other users) Add new content (e.g. knowledge, opinions or experience) Share your things (e.g. photos, writings) Control the info (delete, promote, correct or complete) Suming up (vote the best places to travel or interesting scientific papers) Put your things online (tasks, meetings, gift lists or a list of books) Tags: web2.0, user
  6. Blogs: user’s voice on the Web A blog is a website where entries are made in journal style and displayed in a reverse chronological order •  You write easily everything you want (without specialized knowledge) •  You are connected with other people (blogosphere) •  Primary textual, but no restrictions (photos, video, audio, etc) There are at least 60 Millions, and growing (¡2x each 6 months!) Blog can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog. Tags: web2.0, blogs, user
  7. What does all this mean? The strengthening of the user’s role offers a lot of possibilities that are changing not only Internet, but also our society Here, only three examples... •  Systems to promote news in a social way •  Defeating information asymmetry •  Updating the scientific journals Tags: web2.0, user, society
  8. e.g. Promote news in a social way Digg, a user driven social content website (with no editorial board, reporters or opinion leaders) After you submit news, other users read your submission and vote what they like best. If your story rocks and receives enough votes, it is promoted to the front page for the millions of visitors to see. There are similar services in Spanish as: meneame, fresqui or negociame Tags: web2.0, digg, news, user
  9. e.g. Defeat info asymmetry The vertical and unidirectional flow of information between sellers and consumers has been changed to a more democratic situation •  Companies talk about their incredible products (ads, catalogues, etc) •  With Internet, consumer’s voice is powerful 10 years ago, a consumer’s bad experience (e.g. with a car) was propagated to 10-50 people. Now, ¡it can be propagated through Internet to thousands or millions! Freedom is, first of all, the chance to formulate the available choices, to argue over them -- and then, the opportunity to choose. (C. Wright Mills) Tags: web2.0, blogs, user
  10. The Ikea case •  In 2005, Alvy writes about a bad experience with Ikea (in his blog) •  His comments were propagated through Internet… Now if you search in google the word “Ikea” the third result is: Ikea: Como mienten a los clientes Of course, this is a very bad publicity for them Tags: web2.0, blogs, user
  11. Kryptonite unbreakable locks •  A consumer states that their high security locks for bicycles could be opened with a ball pen, and he demonstrates it sharing a Video. •  This information was propagated through Internet very fast, and two days after it appears in traditional medias. (e.g. in The New York Times, with more than 5 millions of readers) •  At the beginning the company denied that facts. •  Finally, they announce that they were going to change all the locks. (with a cost of 10 millions of dollars!) The video in youTube, More videos, Even more Tags: web2.0, blogs, user
  12. e.g. Web 2.0 scientific journals “We'll peer-review your work and publish it online as soon as possible so that it can start a conversation within the community that will enhance scientific progress” (Plos One) •  They put you in control by giving you the online tools to get your paper into good shape for publication. •  Once submitted, their editorial board makes an objective and quick decision about its technical quality. •  Once accepted, your paper will be published online within days. •  Once your paper is live online, community peer review begins. (remember that anyone can download and use your paper as they wish) Science is organized knowledge. Herbert Spencer (1820 - 1903) Tags: web2.0, blogs, user
  13. Final comments...
  14. Web 2.0 services used to do this presentation: •  Google docs (to write some notes and the link page) •  SlideShare (to share the slides) •  YouTube (source of the videos) •  Wikipedia (main source of information) •  Blogs (source of information and promote the slides) •  Del.icio.us (to manage the links used here) •  Technorati (to look for information)
