Chad Hurley from YouTube

“I was looking for a sport and F1 seemed interesting”

Chad Hurley

Is he serious? He was looking for a sport?

How many videos of this interview will be on YouTube tonight?

Mike Arrington grows up…

Arrington has been at LeWeb for the last few years.

Usually he’s a pain the rear end trying to create a news story and being stupidly critical.

This year he seems to have grown up. He’s just managed to chair an interesting discussion without looking for a fight.

At last, the triumph of facts over form.

Argh: Another offer that is US only…

I was all ready to get out my credit card and give Google some money. This might be the first time!

Then I see the small print…

LeWeb: Count the references to Apple…

Looking down the list of sponsors it’s interesting who is missing. IBM, Apple, Amazon are not here and I can understand why they’ve stayed away. There is no system integrator on the list which is amazing considering we’re in the home of Cap and Atos.

However, the odd one out is Apple; although they’re not here, they’re already the most prominent company! First interview was a demo for an Apple app!!!
