An anthropological introduction to YouTube

A presentation by Michael Wesch

An anthropological introduction to YouTube is a 40-minute YouTube video of a presentation by Michael Wesch of Kansas State University. The presentation, given at the Library of Congress in 2008, provides an overview of two years of research on the famous platform. On his Digital Ethnography website, he writes, "Our work explores how humans use media, how media uses us, and how we can use new media to reveal our insights in new ways."
