Another cool video: This one is a new Web 2.0 primer.

Videos like this — that use moving images to explain abstract concepts instead of concrete realities — are actually pretty rare. It’s hard for me to tell if this one is truly successful, because I’m already familiar with this particular abstract concept, but it sure seems like it.

And regardless, the visual device — narration in query strings and source code — is ridiculously brilliant.
