Damn... you've been rocking the house with these FastCompany.tv episodes!! (Although your subject got slammed in the headline... referring to him by name-dropping a more well known persona, neglecting to even include his own name... ouch. Even something like: "Ben Segal, The Mentor of Tim Berners-Lee at CERN"... right?)

Anyway... keep up the awesome job on the episodes...

That was great... Fascinating stories about the early days of the Web.

Really awesome too to see Tim's NeXT machine.

Thanks, Robert!
