"Paul Kedrosky: "I'm particularly fond of SmashingTelly given how it, in effect, Tivo-ifies the web"... Guy Dickinson: "David Galbraith has turned Smashing Telly into well, the new TV."... Fimoculous: "Best Blogs of 2007"... The Guardian: Video sharing on the net has uncovered a hoard of TV gems...and a number of sites have been established to lead us to them. Take smashingtelly.com."

about

"Smashing Telly is a hand edited collection of the best free, instantly available TV on the web. ~~Not 30 second clips~~ (now with added clips, good ones) of a dog on a skateboard, or the millionth person to mime the Numa song, but classic clips and full length programs, with a focus on documentaries and non fiction. Smashing Television, not Gimmick Television.

Each entry is like a postcard, a short piece of text which describes a moving picture."

A decades old interview with Chomsky, talking about linguistics. So much more interesting and important than politics.

Running time: 45 mins.

I watched the video but i DID NOT get anything.

I’m not dumb. Just don’t know why it felt like i didn’t understand it.

Very easy to understand. In fact the lucidity, along with the content, is quite thrilling. It is interesting to see how much of this thinking is now supported by the advances made in modern cognitive science.
