Inspiration - Randy Pausch’s last lecture August 13, 2008
I recently stumbled upon a blog which had some inspirational videos from youtube. Randy Pausch’s video struck me particularly. Randy was a Carnegie Mellon professor who was diagnosed with terminal cancer. He went about fulfilling his childhood dreams, and gave some great lectures about it.
He was particularly funny and insightful, and only passed away last month (July 2008). I love the fact that Randy said his only deathbed conversion was from PC to Mac, hilarious guy.
It’s a great clip. I saw it a few months ago and was amazed. So many awesome lecturers out there.
