These video lectures are from a series about the information technology revolution, vis-a-vis long time UC Berkeley Professor Manuel Castells' work. These video focus on the social history of the internet. I created this video for a course I teach on "Society and Information Technology," online only here and on Harvard's Berkman island in Second Life, the 3-D virtual world - http://socinfotech.pbwiki.com. See, too, the course web page - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv.html.
