The Wild West days of Lonely Girl and Ask A Ninja are over. You simply can’t expect to post great videos on YouTube and have them go viral on their own, even if you think you have the best videos ever. These days, achieving true virality takes serious creativity, some luck, and a lot of hard work. So, my advice: fire your PR firm and do it yourself.

• Make it short: 15-30 seconds is ideal; break down long stories into bite-sized clips
• Design for remixing: create a video that is simple enough to be remixed over and over again by others. Ex: “Dramatic Hamster”
• Don’t make an outright ad: if a video feels like an ad, viewers won’t share it unless it’s really amazing. Ex: Sony Bravia
• Make it shocking: give a viewer no choice but to investigate further. Ex: “UFO Haiti”
• Use fake headlines: make the viewer say, “Holy shit, did that actually happen?!” Ex: “Stolen Nascar”
• Appeal to sex: if all else fails, hire the most attractive women available to be in the video. Ex: “Yoga 4 Dudes”

"There's absolutely no bubble in technology"
Peter thiel october 31, 2007
investor, Facebook

got me a CS degree
honor roll, MIT

moved to Palo Alto
opportunity Knocked

thought i had the perfeect plan
took a job at webvan

traded in my twenties
for a worthless pile of tech stock

Suffered throught the market crash
lost a giant wad of cash

Pink slips, burger flips
would you like some fries

happy days are here again
lary page, sergey brin

time to write a business plan
so i can be like those guys!

here comes another bubble
   
it's a monster rally
all around the valley
   
first you need a buzzword
(Ajax)
then a second and a third

pick at least two industries
you'll revolutionize
(newpappers + friendship bracelets)
   
find yourself an engineer
feed him pizza, buy him beer
(product placement : Samel Adams)
   
Give him just a fraction
of a fraction of the pie
   
need a good domain name
must be cheap, can't be lame
   
something cool like
flickr, meebo, wikiyou, mahalo, bebo
   
"telephone" without the "t"
"digg" but with a triple "g"
   
make your elevator pith
("We're going to change the world!")
code it up and flip the switch
(internal server error)
   
here comes another bubble
(VC #1: friendship bracelets and news is a game changer.)
the VCs are backing
(VC #2: The next wave of the web will be friendship bracelets.)
baby let's get cracking
   
blog, blog, blog it all
blog it if it’s big or small
   
blog at the cineplex
(justin.tv)
blog while you're having sex
   
blog in the locker room
babies blogging in the womb

blog even if you’re wrong
won’t you blog about this song?
(Yet Another Stupid Web 2.0 Video)
   
launch party, nicely dressed
what the point? sausage fest
   
blue shirt, khaki pants,
looking like a line of ants
   
need to get a facebook page
all these guys are half my age
   
twenty nice, past my prime
i feel so behind the times
   
here comes another bubble
(Matt is broke)
in a year we swear
we'll all be billionaires
   
make yourself a million bucks
partly skill, mostly luck
   
now you can afford a down payment
on a small house
   
if you want a bigger one
hillsborough, atherton
   
better hoipe the same thing
happened to your spouse
   
IPO... luky you
have your cake and eat it too
   
Party yacht, party jet
why not buy a matching set?
   
build yourself a rocket ship
blast off on an ego trip
   
can this really be the end?
back to work you go again
   
here comes another bubble
(im in ur serverz making thingz better!!, Twitter has problems!!)
and when we are gone
(You looked better on Myspace)
this will still go on
   
and on and on and on and on

　「テクノロジーにはバブルなんて絶対ない」
ピーター・シール、2007年10月31日
Facebook投資者

コンピュータ・サイエンスの学位取った
MITの成績優秀者名簿に載った

Palo Altoに行った
チャンスがドアを叩いた

完璧なプランだと思ってた
webvanに就職した

俺の二十代を突っ込んだ
役立たずのハイテク株の山へ

市場崩壊の中で苦しんだ
大金を失った

解雇通知、バーガーショップ勤務（低賃金労働）
フライドポテトはいかが？

再び幸せな日々がやってきた
ラリー・ペイジ、サーゲイ・ブリン

さあビジネスプランを書く時だ
そうすれば俺も彼らのようになれるんだ

バブルがまたやってくる

ひとでなしの集会（ラリー）が
バレー（谷）のあちこちに

まずバズ・ワードが必要だ
（Ajax）
そして二つ目、三つ目の。

少なくとも二つ産業を見つけよう
君が革命を起こすつもりの
（新聞＋友情ブレスレッド）

エンジニアを一人見つけて
ピザを与え、ビールを奢ろう

彼に分け前を少しだけ与えよう
少しの、さらに少しだけ

いいドメイン名が必要だ
安くて、ダサくないやつを

なんかカッコイイやつ、例えば
flickr, meebo, wikiyou, mahalo, bebo

「telephone」から"t"を取ってみる（elephone）
「digg」じゃなくてgを3つ付けてみる（diggg）

崇高なキャッチ・フレーズを作ろう
（「我々は世界を変える！」）
コード書いて、スイッチをパチパチ
（internal server error）

バブルがまたやってくる
（VC #1：友情ブレスレッドとニュースはゲームの変革者だ）
ベンチャー・キャピタリスト達が後ろについている
（VC #2：ウェブの次の波は友情ブレスレッドになるだろう）
さあ、取り掛かろう

ブログ、ブログ、ブログに全て書こう
ブログに書け、どんな些細なことでも

映画館でブログ
（justin.tv）
セックスしてる時もブログ

ロッカールームでブログ
お腹の赤ちゃんもブログ

君が間違っててもブログ
この歌のことも書いたら？

パーティー開催だ　着飾った人々
重要なのは？　ソーセージの山盛り

青いシャツ、カーキ色のズボン
まるで蟻の行列みたい

Facebookのアカウントが必要だ
みんな俺の半分の年齢だ

素晴らしき20代　過ぎ去った俺の青春
すごく時代遅れに感じる

バブルがまたやってくる
（マットは破産した）
一年以内に　断言する
俺達はみんな億万長者だ

小奇麗にオシャレしよう
パーティースキルだ、幸運を祈る

今、君は小さな家の頭金を支払うことが出来る

もしヒルズやアサートンに大きな家が欲しいなら

君の奥さんに起きたのと同じ良い願いだ

IPO…そいつは良かった
両手に花ときたもんだ

パーティ・ヨット、パーティ・ジェット
おそろいでお買い上げになりませんか？

個人用の宇宙船を造って
勝手気ままに飛び立とう

これってマジで終わりってやつ？
また職場に戻ろう

バブルがまたやってくる
俺達が去った後も
まだまだ続く

まだまだ、まだまだ、まだまだ・・・・

“Today’s child is bewildered when he enters the 19^th century environment that still characterizes the educational establishment where information is scarce but ordered and structured by fragmented, classified patterns, subjects, and schedules.”

– Marshall McLuhan 1967

It these walls could talk …

What would they say?

If students learn what they do …

What are they learning sitting here?

The information is up here.

Follow along.

Follow.

Of course, walls and desks cannot talk.

But students can.

Open Google Document: A Vision of Students Today.

What is it like being a student today?

Add Collaborators.

Collaborators (200).

200 Students made 367 edits to this document,

and surveyed themselves,

to bring you the following message:

My average class size is 115.

18% of my teachers

know my name

I complete 49% of the readings assigned to me.

Only 26% … relative to my life

I buy hundred dollar textbooks that I never open.

My neighbor paid for class but never comes.

I will read 8 books this year

2300 web pages

and 1281 facebook profiles

I will write 42 pages for class this semester

And over 500 pages of email

I get 7 hours of sleep each night

I spend 1 ½ hours watching TV each night.

I spend 3 ½ hours a day online

I listen to music 2.5 hours a day

I spend 2 hours on my cellphone

3 hours in class

2 hours eating

I work 3 hours every day

3 hours studying

That’s a total of 26.5 hours.

I’m a multitasker.

I have to be.

I will be over 20,000 in debt after graduation.

I’m one of the lucky ones.

Over 1 billion people

Make less than one dollar a day

This laptop costs more than some people in the world make in a year.

When I graduate I will probably have a job

That doesn’t exist today

(showing scantron)

Filling this out won’t help me get there.

Or deal with …

war, inequality, ethnic conflict, pollution, (and many more)

I did not create the problems

But they are my problems

Some have suggested that technology (alone) can save us …

I facebook through most of my classes.

I bring my laptop to class but I’m not working on class stuff.

“The inventor of the system deserves to be ranked among the best contributors to learning and science, if not the greatest benefactors of mankind.”

- Josiah F. Bumstead

1841

… on the benefits of the chalkboard.

Writing on a chalkboard …
