Do you think his “um” count be higher than palosi’s blink count?

What I don’t understand is how he kept himself from interjecting “Man, I’m one smart mofo!” after every few sentences. If I created Firebug (then made it better, and then better still and then released a version that made the other versions look like toys), I’d be wearing a t-shirt and baseball cap that said “One smart mofo” and had a picture of me on it.

Yes, people would think I was nuts. But I’d be like “screw you, I invented Firebug!”

I think we should all be glad Joe Hewitt created Firebug and not me.

I just don’t understand how a guy can talk about such an interesting subject and yet be as dull as this guy. Brilliance, it seems here, has nothing to do with communication skills.

The video of last week's presentation, "Welcome to Firebug 1.0," can be found on the YUIBlog. Note that there was some audio hissing introduced in the transcoding on Yahoo Video, but the audio (and video picture) is clearer on the downloadable version available from that blog article. -Eric

The video currently shown here is from last year, I think they mistakenly put the older one up. There was a newer one filmed last week on the 1.0 release. Until they update this page you can see it on the YUI Theater.

Now ok. At least I can tell sound is crap. ;-)
Sorry about that.

Hello Dion,
Not working on my side (tested it from two different PCs / network).
