Four and a half minutes on why social media is changing the world…

Here’s something I’ve just seen via Jess (that tall guy in Vancouver)…

…it’s a brilliant four and a half minute video of facts and statistics on just how much the world is changing because of social media

It’s from the Socialnomics blog, set up to accompany the new book of the same name by Erik Qualman.  If you visit the site, you’ll find sources for all the stats in the video too, which is very handy.

[ caveat… as wonderful as the video is, I’d advise you watch it with the sound down.  Because, yes, it uses Fat Boy Slim’s ‘Right here, right now’ as backing music… and I thought those days were gone ]
