If you want to see the live coverage of the ceremony of the Olympics in Belgium you'll have to search hard course for many countries their local sports channel does a streaming but only for the inhabitants for the country. In Belgium the
best way to watch this live streaming is without any doubt Zattoo. Zattoo is and I quote from their site "Zattoo is real TV on your PC– and it’s absolutely free. It's the football game as you chat, the news as you email, and your favorite soap as you pay your bills. Zattoo is also TV when you don't have a TV - it's the channels you want, when you want, where you want.".
If it's not to late when you read this enjoy if not it's anyway a nice tool to watch TV on your computer, you got the Dutch channel VT4 but the one you need for the Olympics is La Une.
Go Viral published a book called "The Social Metropolis" where and I quote "By visiting the Social Metropolis you will learn about the evolution of people, media, and technology.
In addition, you will gain insights into the trends that are shaping the future, understand the key challenges, and tackle issues that so far have gone unaddressed. In short, you will learn how to navigate the Social Metropolis."
It’s a book full of really nice ideas, concepts and cases in order to give you an overview of how the people interact with the possibilities and technologies of the net, so if you got some time it’s a must reader. You can have a look at the flash version trough http://www.goviral.com/book_2008 you can also download it on http://www.goviral.com/orderBook.php.

Below you can watch a video featuring Paris herself which is a again another response on the celeb video of John McCain.
Great video but what's all about the fact that these videos and all the copies seem to disappear form YouTube they all seem to get banned and deleted. Could anybody explain why this kind of things happen with just a fun video??

A new technology in YouTube are video Annotations, Video annotations are a new way for you to add interactive commentary onto your videos!
You control what the annotations say, where they appear on the video, and when they appear and disappear. You can even link from an annotation to another YouTube Video, Channel, or Search result.
The first good commercial use I've seen with video annotations is the new campaign for Samsung called "Follow your Instinct" next to a nice site they created a viral video campaign based on those annotations where depending on the choice you make you go into another direction in the movie.
You'll find the first one below, never the less if you want to use the annotations you'll have to go to YouTube as they don't work when integrated.
In a response to a John McCain video where he compares Barack Obama to a star, the site Slate V imagines a viral video backlash featuring Chris Crocker and I guess we all remember him from the Leave Britney alone video.
Michael Wesh an Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology of the Kansas State University did a presentation that focuses on the anthropology, the behavior and the culture that YouTube is enabling. It's also the person that created the video about "Web 2.0 ... linking people" about a year ago. It's just a great video and a must see to understand what every body moves to get on YouTube and how Youtube works.
