When I followed the article to its YouTube video, it said the video was no longer available. Here appears to be a summary of it here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6084221876531914922&q=Patrick+Winston+-+How+to+Speak&total=8&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0 http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6084221876531914922&... And Harvard has it all in a number of separate videos: http://isites.harvard.edu/fs/html/icb.topic58703/winston1.html http://isites.harvard.edu/fs/html/icb.topic58703/winston1.ht...

  Alternatively, if you're on a Unix-like system, you can download them all easily using wget: wget -nd -A.mov -r -l1 -np http://ice.fas.harvard.edu/%7Ebok_cen/booksvid/vids/hts/ http://ice.fas.harvard.edu/%7Ebok_cen/booksvid/vids/hts/ For anyone who doesn't know wget, this can be dissected to: -nd means "no directories", so don't mirror the directory structure -r means to visit recursively (i.e. grab relative links) -l1 means "one level" (i.e. don't grab the links from any subpages) -np means "no parent" (i.e. don't go to subdirectories which are parent of the current one) -A.mov means 'accept' .mov (i.e. download movs)

why is this notorious?
- aston 19y ago
  Notorious is the wrong word. It is well-known, however, and well-reputed on MIT's campus. It's an annual standing-room-only event.

pretty good talk about talks. maybe an update with projectors and graphics would be good. Does Al Gore's Inconvenient truth talk or some of Steve Job's talks not contravene many of these items?
