At Home with Tim O'Reilly (Videos 3 and 4 of 6)

Posted by Roblimo on from the he's-a-publishing-business-upshaker-who-supports-the-builder-and-the-maker dept.

Today's videos are parts three and four of our casual interview with Tim O'Reilly, founder of O'Reilly Media and one of the most influential open source boosters around. (You supplied the questions. He supplied the answers.) We had a lot more to say about Tim yesterday when we ran parts one and two of our video interview with him. (Today's alternate Video Links: Video 3 ~ Video 4; transcript covers both videos.)

  1. "Transcript" doesn't work in "beta" - ha ha ha ha by xxxJonBoyxxx · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Not that too many people use "beta", but I noticed today that I had to switch back to the "Classic" site we know and love to skim TFtranscript.

    TL;DR version of the transcript for anyone who cares:
    "Back when people used to buy computer books our company was the s***, and I was fascinated by all the Tetris-like screens clerks used to use in stores like Borders. (Remember that place?) And government IT sure is f***ed up, ain't it?"
