Composing in Web 2.0. [101.11]

In the world of user-generated content, each one of us is capable of becoming an overnight sensation. As we observe, discuss, and analyze Web 2.0, we will start to unravel what it means to live in Web 2.0. But mostly—as this is above all a writing course—from the first day of class, we will compose an exploration of the many forms and types of media that make up our daily experiences. In doing so, we will compose a living record of the what it means to create and compose in Web 2.0.

Andy Milonakis ( Lose The War)(reggae)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z67wxUjiNZA&feature=relmfu
This video is a great example of how fame can be found on the internet. Andy Milonakis produced many videos viewed by thousands of people around the world. It is effective because he does best, making funny videos. Hes expressing himself in a way he wouldn't be able to do in person and if effective at it, having many fans who watch his videos. I think that if this was produced by "traditional" media it wouldn't be as funny. It shows where the talent is coming from and no one is playing anyone's role. Andy produced and play in his own part in the video. On "traditional" media, the video probably would've been censored.

His show was definitely funny! "I got peas on my head, but don't call me a peahead!" LOL

I agree with everything you said. HE got viewed so much that he ended up on MTV.
