Robin Good Remixes the TechCrunch Web 2.0 Documentary
Robin Good decided that 1/8 of the recent TC Web 2.0 Documentary was worthwhile:
Couldn’t I remix and edit this video into my own version of what was really meaningful for me and my audiences?
Isn’t that what the Web 2.0 spirit is all about?
…
I then decided to take humble self-permission to follow the very advice that IS inside that video documentary, and as a my Robin Good name warrants, I took all the time needed to capture, re-encode, edit and republish the whole video into my own 3-minute remix of what I think, is the best from Michael Arrington great video effort.
I think it’s a valuable effort but even with 3-minutes there are still too many buzzwords and generalities to make it digestible to the non-tech savvy crowd…but I’ll let you decide.

The original video was unbearably long, I cut it off somewhere around the five minute mark. This remix was a little more bearable just knowing that it’d be over in a couple of minutes. But I agree with you, too many buzzwords and generalities, which usually happens when someone doesn’t know what they’re talking about. In my humble opinion, a lot of it sounded like BS.

Well done!
I particularily liked the inclusion of the quote from Gautam Godhwani, Simple Hired CEO, about the a four things Web 2.0 companies should offer: search, tools and applications, content, and community. I think that was one of the most important things from the video.
