In January, Donald Clark, Nigel Paine, and I led discussions on informal learning and web 2.0 at Learning Technologies 2008 in London.
This is my first mash-up of conference presentations. I encourage you to steal the concept: life’s too short for linear video. Boil it down to essence. It’s not that tough to do.
What do you think?

Great video, Jay.
Terrific video – and a fantastic idea. Thanks, Jay.
Thankyou for this Jay. And you are completely correct. Life IS too short for linear video! A wonderfully insightful collection of reflective statements that manage to get me to think and ponder.
If you have the time, I would love to know what you used to put his together.
Good stuff Jay.
Great video, thanks.
Liked the Second Life idea for learning about sexual harassment. Um, hesitate to ask, but were there no women speakers?
Congratulations Jay!
First jolly mush-up!
Feel invited to Santander, Spanish nothern coast resort. The house is big, the sea near.
The wine cellar, generous.
Thanks God, someone like you, makes scenes from from Zabrisky Point, vivid and powerful.
Best wishes.

Hmmm…Seemed like a linear video to me. Start at the start, end at the end. A collection of snipits is great (mashups) for those of us who weren’t there and don’t want to watch the entire presentation, but don’t call it non-linear. No communication that makes any practical sense to an audience proceeds in a random order. Unless your a french post-modernist, of course. Then that’s brilliance.
Matt, I meant linear as a stand-in for sequential. You’re correct that the snippets were arranged to support meaning but they are out of temporal order. What word would you use to describe that?
