"The Machine is Us/ing Us"

I believe that the title of the video "The Machine is Us/ing Us" is attempting to make a point about the large impact that computers make on virtually everyone's lives today. The computer/internet is no longer simply a place to find information but is a connection between anyone, anywhere, and at anytime. The video brought up the very point of what I am doing at this very moment. We can each make blogs and write our thoughts about anything and post them to the web for anyone to see. This was not possible in the past because one would need to know complicated codes in order to put information on the internet. It is becoming easier and easier for people to stay connected because of the advancement of the computer/internet. I think that Web 2.0 is beneficial to people entering the work force because those looking for a job can simply post their resumes to the internet and wait for employers to call them. For example, my brother just graduated a few weeks ago, and he posted his resume on a certain website. He was already receiving calls the next morning asking for him to come in for an interview. Web 2.0 affects people who are already in the work force by allowing them and their fellow co-workers to also stay connected with one another. This is sometimes not a good thing, though, because their interaction becomes much less personable when they are only communicating through mediums such as e-mail. I think that when it says that "we may have to rethink everthing" that it is referring to the fact that the the possibilities of technology and, specifically, computers and the internet are constantly changing, either for the good or bad, depending on how you see it.
