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.

Remix
When I think of remixes I think about music and how they add a new artist to sing or rap to a song. Most of the time the remix does make the music better because it is the same song but has different twist or feeling to it, the remix is suppose to enhance the song and make it better than the original. In youtube when they make a remix to some thing it is usually changing what the message is or changing the visual aspect of the video to seem more funnier or more interesting than the original. The remix usually has the same visual but the sounds are different or what is being said has changed or it can be another way around like in the video that changes the image of President Obama.

Cindy, you write, "In youtube when they make a remix to some thing it is usually changing what the message is or changing the visual aspect of the video to seem more funnier or more interesting than the original. The remix usually has the same visual but the sounds are different or what is being said has changed or it can be another way around like in the video that changes the image of President Obama." I think this is a very astute observation! However, what else is going on here? Besides, as you say, changing the image of Obama?
