I’m sure I’ve mentioned before that my highest mark for a presentation in library school was one I did that was actually in a journalism class. My presentation was about online video and how it allows you to transcend both space and time in a way that other previous media (television, radio, etc.) couldn’t.
This video from earlier this week is a prime example – before the Internet and the advent of online video, when would I have ever been able to sit in my living room in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, and watch an amazing fireworks display from half a world away (which was uploaded by a newspaper in England?)
Amazing and amazing.
