seattleorganicseo.com Probably one of the best, if not the best commencement speeches in history. It is the most hillarious public speech that I've ever seen and I can't get enough of it. Excuse the watermark and the fact that I had to break this up into 5 pieces. More reasons for the imperfections below. I hope you enjoy! It took forever to convert this .rm (real player) file to one (.avi) that can be uploaded here to YouTube.com. Not only was it a pain in the butt, but you also have this stupid watermark on the video because the software developer for the conversion from real stream to .avi decided to prevent us poor people from having a clean version. The 4th segment is my favorite in these 5 parts. The George Bush Impersonation is incredible.

UC Berkeley's 2010 Commencement speech calls for Moxie. Honored by Newsweek as one of the "Women Shaping the 21st Century," Tiffany Shlain is an acclaimed filmmaker, artist, founder of The Webby Awards, co-founder of the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences and a Henry Crown Fellow of The Aspen Institute. Few people could appreciate the use of tweets and text messages more than keynote speaker Tiffany Shlain who addressed a sold-out audience of 11500 people. Shlain noted that the World Wide Web was in its infancy when she graduated from UC Berkeley in 1992. Director Shlain urged graduates to take risks and tackle challenges in life with "moxie -- a mixture of being bold, fearless and a little outrageous," and recounted times in her career when she was able to get doors to open for her with such an approach. Sunday marked the first time that Commencement Convocation was held at the 11500-seat Haas Pavilion. The event, traditionally held at the Greek Theatre, which seats 7200, was relocated to accommodate a greater demand for tickets.
