I have always felt that the digital age is going to leave a fascinating trail for future anthropologists. Then again, maybe RSS, Facebook, Flash video, jpegs and twitter streams will be so out-of-date by then that all the information will be lost.

Thank goodness for people like Michael Wesch digging into the fossils of our collective present and reminding us that YouTube is more than cats and people getting hit in the nuts.

It clocks at about 55 minuts long, but a crash course on the anthropoligical impact of YouTube is worthwhile for any of us Social Media pointy-heads.
