I spent an hour yesterday talking about the impact of online video and social media on CBC's Ontario Today. The discussion and callers highlighted the great benefits (ie. musician talking about the benefits of the Internet) and the anxiety that some parents feel about their kids interaction with MySpace, Facebook, and other sites. The CBC has posted parts one and two of the discussion along with an intro to the issue (Real).
