I have an apostrophe on my keyboard. That way I don't confuse the English speakers.

Fun stuff.

He's pretty bad at presenting. He makes a bad mistake just jumping into the content without any overview or title.

In the end, no lasting impression was made except bunch of pranks over internet. He could've themed it, "The power of people in numbers when combined with internet anonymity" or "Sociological human psyche when you are completely anonymous"

Maybe he was just trolling the audience.

very interesting. Surely someone would want to reach a ton of 14-25 year olds and pay for advertising.

And be associated with child pornography, gross adult content, snuff, and all the sick stuff of internet.

Wow, I made it about 60 seconds in and then I absolutely died of boredom.

I'll bet most people in that audience, while they may be hip to many more things than most, have not had any first hand experience with 4chan whatsoever.

In which case, they came away from that "lecture" still not knowing the day to day reality of zoo.

I havent really been into 4chan since being banned back in late 2007 (new isp now so its moot anyway), but this was a good interview. Public speaking is plenty o' fun and I was focusing on delivery as much as content.

3 out of 4 stars. :)

That's a little scary. He's now in school learning how to adapt 4chan to physical communities :^D
