Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the hope-they-are-ready-for-nerd-traffic dept.

kurosawdust writes "The first ever episode of Robert Cringely's long-awaited NerdTV is now available for download. This episode features Andy Hertzfeld, member of the original Macintosh team who always has a few good stories to tell. Episode 1 is available in MP4 Video (whole episode and smaller-sized snippets) MP3, Ogg, AAC, and good old-fashioned text transcript (for those of you who watch your TV in vi, like God intended). NerdTV is released under the Creative Commons license."

    It's a pity it's Cringely's show, it might have had a chance at being good otherwise. Anyone who knows his "name" knows that most of what he says is irrelevant and incorrect...more inflammatory than informative.

    Anyway, my point that I was (badly) trying to make was that blind allegiance or blind hatred should not be your guiding motivation for accepting or dismissing a technology out of hand.

    Sadly, the site designer wants to pop up a new window and have me view the video in my web browser. They're so aggressive about that desire that they demand I break my proxy to allow them to script my system rather than just providing me a download link.

    Skip it. No content so "protected" is worth watching.
