Social media in plain English

Here is a great video from the Common Craft people about social media:


Social Media in Plain English from leelefever on Vimeo.

Just looking at their site there are a couple things that really tickle me. For one thing their videos are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial No-Derivatives license which means you can download them legitimately, post them on your blogs (which I think you could do through YouTube, Vimeo and Blip.tv anyway through their terms of use) and even pass them around as long as you don’t re-sell them, use them commercially or mash them up). I also like that you can license the videos to use at work (the link didn’t work when I tried it now so hopefully they’ll sort this gremlin out soon).

Common Craft produces a really fantastic service which helps explain some of the confusing jargon to people new to these concepts.
