Jezus, Mary and Joseph!
is there ANYTHING more annoying (other than being born in a manger, perhaps) than this nasally whiny ramblng friken screencast that uses 20 minutes of your life (and 20mb of bandwidth) to describe something that could be shown 20 lines of code and an example code link that allows you to run the code in your browser.
As Obama prepares his STIMULUS package, this dronehead gleefully prepared his LAXATIVE package, ‘cause I almost had a shit waiting for his agonizing droning to end! - and yes, I shat…err… SAT through the whole thing, his abortive edits, his rambling off-topic tangent off into absolute positioning of pngs, his googling for the right piece of code to include…oh, cant somebody use a frigging EDITOR???
The video was somewhat blurred too, as if he used to camera that shoots octogenarian Barbara Walters’ closeups-
overall: An otherwise interesting tutorial premise marred by overindulgent and sloppy video work.
Next time around (if he dont get run over by a truck - not that I’m wishing that on him, mind you, but bad things tend to happen to droning announcers (and angry commenters, no doubt), I suggest keeping the video short (under 5 minutes) and edit out the ahhms.. and uhmmms..
