Randy Pausch Last Lecture: Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams

[drcuriosity]

The lecture is 76 minutes long, but an interesting listen (the later parts especially if you're an academic/science/computer/VR/interaction design geek). The lecturer died recently of pancreatic cancer. An inspirational gift to leave people with.

That lecture is amazing.

As it happens, I ended up at a barbecue last night with a couple of people who went to Carnegie-Mellon and were now working for Imagineering. Given the timing, I didn't really feel it polite to bring him up in conversation, though.

Definitely one of the best lectures I've ever seen
