4chans Moot on TED talks:)

He didn't really say much, except briefly explain what /b/ is. I didn't know about Dusty the cat though, that's a neat story with a good ending.

The talk wasn't as interesting as most TED sessions but I'm always game for a moot video.

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

Good God, you didn't miss much... unless you want to see m00t stammering through a Q&A session giving answers like "there is but, uhhh..."

More than balanced by the all the child porn and snuff pics that get posted. I go on 4chan sometimes, it's entertaining, but to try to make it anything more than a cheap laugh is just silly IMO.

Damn you

Dusty got some FRIENDS!
