[VIDEO PLAYBACK]
MySpace is just
where I can be me.
Exactly who I want to be, not
what people want me to be.
I've probably got in the region
of 200 friends on MySpace?
You've got the world on your
computer, whereas outside
the door you've only
got your hometown.
I couldn't live without
my phone or my iPod.
They're just so a part of me!
I'd feel like I'd lost
a limb or something.
I probably send between
30 and 40 texts a day.
It's really cool to have a
mobile just so I can keep in
touch with guys that I find it
too awkward to sort of speak
face-to-face with them.
Pull out your iPod, compared to
a normal mp3 player, you're
one step above everyone else.
Apple's definitely
my favorite brand.
I don't think brands are cool,
I think people are cool.
I'm not really a big
fan of branding.
I love to try and like rip off
the brands, or cut them out.

kind of label us.
Otherwise I'm just
free advertising.

My mum tells me not to give out
any personal information ever.
Don't give away where you live,
and don't give away anything
like personal, like
your phone number.
I probably spend about
four hours a day on my
computer or my PSP.
I prefer to play my PSP rather
than doing sport, because you
don't need skill to get the
same amount of enjoyment
or fun out of it.
I couldn't live
without my phone.
For business, it would
definitely be my mobile.
I just don't really connect
without my computer these days.

JONATHAN ZITTRAIN: I don't
know if you noticed that,
like, sketchy guy in the
middle of the video.
No?
Kind of at the schoolyard
fence, looking to make trouble.
Is he here today?
No?
Good.
Excellent.
My name is Jonathan Zittrain.
I teach Internet Law at Harvard
Law School, and I also teach
Internet Governance at
Oxford University.
And it's my honor to help us
ring in the final session of
Google Zeitgeist Europe 2007.
And what better subject for
our final session than
that of digital youth?
Around the time that the
internet was finally hitting
the mainstream -- '94, '95 --
it's now been about 10 years.
So there's time for the youths
who built this thing to
have their own kids, and to
start worrying about them.
So we hope that in this session
today we'll have a chance to
see some of the new trends, to
talk to people that are expert,
both by being young themselves
and by having their fingers on
the various pulses
of digital youth.
Talk a little bit about some of
the concerns, and have a chance
to actually pull together some
of the themes on branding, on
the future of the net, on
mobile -- various themes that
have happened over this
day and yesterday.
So for that, I would love
to welcome up our first
guest for the session.
