Thanks a lot for putting this online !
This is a great idea.

I now feel like Walter is a friend.
Strange.

I think this may help the D cause.

Thanks!  But  Google Video isn's available in china!

Why send the video link to be download?

Sorry if my terseness created confusion -- I didn't put it online.

I've uploaded a mirror of the video on my personal server at:
http://mrradar.dreamhosters.com/public/Walter_Bright.mp4

It's 236 megs and in the .mp4 format which you can use Quicktime to play.

This is great.  Not to complain however I wish the slide text in the video was more readable.  It will probably confuse people who haven't seen D syntax before.  Although Walter does a good job of walking though it.

It's perfectly legible if you follow along in the slides that are also linked from that site :-)  But people just getting the link to the video won't see that...

Hmm, I tried to add some links directly to the Google vid page but I think I may have made a booboo.  I tried to add links as 'tags'.  I guess that's not what tags are for.  There's no way to remove it either other than to mark the links as "spam" which they aren't really, and I would hate for nwcpp.org to get blacklisted by google as a spam website.

Added to a comment also, but links in comments aren't clickable, which seems a shame.
Too bad the nwcpp.org people didn't just make the link on the slide point to the specific talk page rather than the general home page.

I don't know how to make sound in flash work :(

But you can open the video in an external player (with sound), by clicking the "this link" in the right side, below download, and simply telling your videoplayer to stream it.

According to the Ubuntu wiki (at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash):
* Install the alsa-oss package
* Make sure your /etc/firefox/firefoxrc has 'FIREFOX_DSP="aoss"'

Worked for me.
