優秀ICT教學記錄片系列(2) – 1998《電腦狂 2.0.1》 Nerds 2.0.1

相比其他的學科,ICT科的記錄片不多,這十數年有系統的都不過五套,所以iGardener老師幾經辛苦,除了早前介紹BBC的虛擬革命之外,找到兩套美國 PBSW 拍攝的記錄片,分別是:

Nerds 2.0.1: A Brief History of the Internet

「與Robert X Cringely一起,投入到這個萬眾期待的《電腦狂的勝利》續集,他機警且嘲諷把焦點定在網際網路富吸引力的歷史中。深入五角大樓內部見證網際網路的誕生,並沿循它的快速發展,直到它成為WWW的尖端技術。在他的旅程中,Cringely訪問了奠定網際網路基礎的電腦狂,去了印度矽谷(班加羅爾),還造訪了從驚異的新技術中賺取數百萬身家的網路公司創始人。」Amazon.com

“Join Robert X Cringely in this much-anticipated sequel to Triumph of the Nerds, as he turns his well-informed and irreverent eye on the intriguing history of the Internet. Go deep into the bowels of the Pentagon to witness the birth of the Internet and follow its rapid rise to the cutting edge of the World Wide Web. On his journey, Cringely interviews the unknown nerds who laid the Internet’s foundations, visits the Silicon Valley of India and grills the founders of the networking companies who have made millions from this fascinating new technology.” Amazon.com

BBC虛擬革命 (The Virtual Revolution)教學系列(6) – 第三集 <免費的代價> The Cost of Free

BBC虛擬革命 (The Virtual Revolution)

Programme 3: 【免費的代價】The Cost of Free內容簡介

In the third programme of the series, Aleks gives the lowdown on how, for better and for worse, commerce has colonised the web – and reveals how web users are paying for what appear to be ‘free’ sites and services in hidden ways.

Joined by some of the most influential business leaders of today’s web, including Jeff Bezos (CEO of Amazon), Eric Schmidt (CEO of Google), Chad Hurley (CEO of YouTube), Bill Gates, Martha Lane Fox and Reed Hastings (CEO of Netflix), Aleks traces how business, with varying degrees of success, has attempted to make money on the web. She tells the inside story of the gold rush years of the dotcom bubble and reveals how retailers such as Amazon learned the lessons. She also charts how, out of the ashes, Google forged the business model that has come to dominate today’s web, offering a plethora of highly attractive, overtly free web services, including search, maps and video, that are in fact funded through a sophisticated and highly lucrative advertising system which trades on what we users look for. Aleks explores how web advertising is evolving further to become more targeted and relevant to individual consumers.

Recommendation engines, pioneered by retailers such as Amazon, are also breaking down the barriers between commerce and consumer by marketing future purchases to us based on our previous choices. On the surface, the web appears to have brought about a revolution in convenience. But, as companies start to build up databases on our online habits and preferences, Aleks questions what this may mean for our notions of privacy and personal space in the 21st century.

BBC虛擬革命 (The Virtual Revolution)教學系列(5) – 第二集 <國家的敵人> Enemy of the State

BBC虛擬革命 (The Virtual Revolution)

Programme 2: Enemy of the state?【國家的敵人】內容簡介

As the web transcends the barriers of the physical world the orthodox view is that the nation state will inevitably wither as a porous web of hyperlinks conquers the globe.

Here, Aleks charts how the Web is forging a new brand of politics, both in democracies and authoritarian regimes. With contributions from Al Gore, Martha Lane Fox, Stephen Fry and Bill Gates, Aleks explores how interactive, unmediated sites like Twitter and YouTube have encouraged direct action and politicised young people in unprecedented numbers. Yet, at the same time, the Web’s openness enables hardline states to spy and censor, and extremists to threaten with networks of hate and crippling cyber attacks.

The wonder and walls of Wikipedia; the blogger media revolution; who really has power on the web? Is it the online crowd or the ‘gatekeepers’?
