overstated

Great video. Even though the guy himself doesn’t have a very captivating personality, he still gives a very captivating lecture. That gives me hope.

One more point: This is an arch. This is not an arch. GLURB! Watch out for it!

Not that this matters, but I think that this lecture may have been from 2001. In the beginning, Professor Winston references President Bush’s recent State of the Union address beginning with a joke.

What’s that weird board he’s writing on?
And where is his laptop?

There is another version with better editing and better quality video available at:

Based on what I watched that overlapped I think it might also be a little bit more recent version.

The references to Bush’s state of the union address, the skier ten years prior, the reference to Dan Quayle, the lack of reference to digital tools and the use of a blackboard rather than a whiteboard all seem to imply that this is from 1989, not 1999.

Regardless, excellent lecture. I’m looking forward to trying some of the ideas.

looks like it’s been taken down

Yeah, any idea where another version could be procured from? Keen to see this, and Google has failed to help me do so..

There is a DVD that is for sale, so maybe someone yelled at YouTube. Bummer because it’s a super obscure academic-type publishing company. You can always watch it in bits at the address @DanOelke posted.

somebody please upload it…not available on google….

Hoping someone can send me a working link. I would love to see this in its entirety but YouTube seems to have pulled the video.

thanks and happy speaking.

Like others, by the time I got to the contiguous video it had been removed. Then, I found the segmented nature of the Harvard site to be too distracting. So, I created an .m3u playlist for use with VLC – much better!

If you’d like the full, high-quality, uninterrupted video, you can save the following text as “Winston-HowToSpeak.m3u” and open it with VLC:

I hate when short sighted intellectuall property owners have a hissy and pull their stuff off the web like this.
