It is amazing how clueless these people still are, and wrong they are so often, yet make far too much money. Bryant Gummyballs is the most annoying person on TV outside of Glenn Beck, and Hannity.

Really good article about if the internet could be "shut down" like in Egypt.

for everyone who's ripping on the video....would you have answered/done any better on the spot 17 years ago?

If you say you would, you're either a liar or were buried deep in technology for virtually your entire life/career.

eh I suppose if you were a later adopter to the tech world. Being one of the earlier ones, I very well remember how stupid everyone thought the internet/computers/tech were at that time. You could TRY to have an intelligent conversation, but get laughed at for being a 'nerd'.

I find the shit like the internet is made up of a bunch of tunnels to be much more amusing than this.

I concur
and for some reason the scene of McBain from the simpsons in "Undercover Nerd" comes to mind
"Der geeks shall inherit the Earth." and then he stuffs some jock in a locker lol

could only find it in spanish (if someone has it in english)
