I spent some time today watching a couple of videos.

The first one was Randy Pausch’s Last Lecture given at Carnegie Mellon University. Randy who died on July 25, 2008 was an American professor of computer science, human-computer interaction and design at Carnegie Mellon University and creator of Alice.

It was a heart-touching and inspiring talk. I have seen there is one commonality in all great men - mastery of effective communication skills.

The other source of videos I usually watch is videos at TED - A get together of Technology Entertainment and Design.

Check out the talks especially introduction by Sirena Huang: Dazzling set by 11-year-old violinist, magical improvisations by Jennifer Lin: 14-year-old pianist or Ze Frank’s Nerdcore Comedy.
