I'm biased as I've always been a fan of Howard Rheingold, but this is one of the best vlogs and video podcasts out there. Howard takes you on episodic journeys through his thinking and uses of emerging technologies, showing you not just how but why you would want to engage in social media. His style is unique, personal and educational. If you're a newbie or a pro, you'll learn from his insights into the social implications of technology.
