YouTube – Technology Fear Factor in Education

Just rewatched this video I made in March 2007 about Technology in Education (particularly in the US.) Have had some say they couldn't read what I was saying, however, it is using IM speak – you have to just read the letters I'm pointing to! Last I checked this video, I had about 2,000 views – it is now up over 25,000! Hmm – what is happening?
