Web 2.0... The Machine is Us/ing Us by Michael Wesch was about how Michael thinks that the internet is controlled only by what people tell it to think.  In other words, "code" is written by people, and the internet only understands what you decide.  This matters to me because I use the internet almost every day. When I use the internet I have to be careful because what I see is what just a bunch of random people in the world put out there and the information might not always be correct. Which is also what is important to education. If it isn't correct then how can you research on the web or look up information for a class? It matters to the world because since it is the World Wide Web it connects through to the entire world, and most stuff out there is just opinion and not really important unless you know you have to agree or disagree with what they're saying. The internet doesn't really use us, it is controlled by what we tell it to think.
