Not believing in our own propaganda

I’m a web 2.0 enthusiast; more particularly, I’m an enterprise 2.0 enthusiast, I guess; I’m sure some of you are as well.

Not everyone thinks the way we do. Which is why seeing videos like this one will help keep us honest and sane. My thanks to Nick Kings for the heads-up.

Incidentally, you can see the shape of things to come at the bottom of the Glumbert video “screen”. It says Send To A Friend. Digg This. Stumble It. Share On Facebook. Options you’re going to get used to.

On humour and vulnerability

I’m fascinated by comics, comedians, humourists, funny people. However you want to describe them. There’s something I feel I can always learn from them about the human condition. Which is probably why I enjoyed Not Only But Always immensely, Rhys Ifans does an incredible job of being Peter Cook. Man On The Moon was another I enjoyed tremendously,  about the life of Andy Kaufman. I still laugh whenever I watch Fawlty Towers, I’m that kind of guy.

Comics make themselves very vulnerable, it’s something about them that appeals to me. The same sort of feeling I got when I saw David Mackenzie speak before a private showing of Hallam Foe to bloggers, an openness and vulnerability that is rare.

I guess I can vicariously share in a tiny bit of that vulnerability by pointing to something offbeat that I found funny. Please humour me and go take a look at these robots fighting. As usual, also in my VodPod.
