*warning - this is one of those friends of friends stories

Jack at the Tech Teapot (http://www.openxtra.co.uk/blog/2007/10/17/social-media-in-plain-english/) posted a link to a blog post over at GetElastic (http://www.getelastic.com/social-media-plain-english/) that showed some videos put on YouTube by the folks at CommonCraft (http://www.commoncraft.com/).

These videos are definitely well done and informative to people who are new to the social media scene. They are also a good illustration on how to use viral content to get people everywhere (to include us) to link to you.

I really enjoyed them, what do you think?

Those are awesome, lol. Not only are they incredibly simple and 'in plain English', but they're memorable. I love 'em.
