Web 2.0 has given us some great moments, which thankfully have been captured in pictures and videos around the world. There are however a few standout videos that really bring out the essence of what was Web 2.0. Below is a short compilation of some of the most popular videos, that really explain what went on during Web 2.0. Watching these videos, pretty much sums up and explains the Web 2.0 era.
1. Here Comes another Bubble
The Richter Scales video “Here Comes Another Bubble” will go down in the history books as THE Web 2.0 Video. The video mocked pretty much everyone involved with the Web 2.0 revolution as being involved in the second “Bubble”. The video is set to the Billy Joel tune from “We Didn’t Start the Fire” and was an instant hit across the Internet. You can download the MP3 for Here Comes Another Bubble if you like.
2. Team Cyprus – Don’t Stop Believing
In sharp contrast to the last video, Team Cyprus’s lip sync of “Don’t Stop Believing” will forever be associated with the end of Web 2.0. Not exactly sure what the tech elite in this video were thinking when they chose to publish this video to the world last week. A lip sync of “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey, the video includes people from Google, Facebook, The Wall Street Journal, and others. While the tech crew was partying it up in Cyprus, chaos was ensuing back home and Silicon Valley was starting to burn.
3. Digg Dubb – Groove Is In the Heart
A great video put together by Digg. A fantastic idea by the Digg guys to make sure everyone at the first Digg meet up at Mighty could recognize the Digg Crew. The video includes appearances from Jay Adelson and Kevin Rose, which are pretty much the best parts of the video. The party at Mighty was also fantastic, where the video first played.
4. Rock Band – Robert Scoble Jay Adelson
What could be more 2008 than Rock Band, Robert Scoble, Dave McClure, David Spark, and Jay Adelson. Set to the tune of “Roxanne” by The Police, “Rock Band” has some pretty hilarious lyrics if you are a Rock Band addict.
