When ever I tried to explain to friends what a Feedreader is, what it looks like and what you benefit is when using it, I recognized how hard it is to explain it to a non-technical person. Now, I found some really cool videos made by Common Craft explaining technologies like Wikis, Feed Aggregators or social bookmarking in about three minutes.

Here is the "Wiki in Plain English":

Second Haskell in Leipzig Meeting - Third talk: Henning Thielemann (Uni Halle) speaks about sound and syntheziser programming with Haskell. The talk is in German.

The second talk of the Haskell in Leipzig Meeting was held by Wolfgang Jeltsch (TU Cottbus) to the theme: "Grapefruit - A declarative GUI Library" The talk is in German.

Updated the video, because the last one was accidentally truncated.

The slides for that talk can be found on the Haskell Wiki.

Here is the first talk from Johan Jeuring (Uni Uetracht), talking about Haskell libraries for Generic Programming.

The slides for this talk will come later, too.

The long awaited videos of the Haskell in Leipzig 2 Meeting Talks are online now.

Here is the first introduction video, showing Johannes Waldmann (HTWK) opening the meeting and speaking about the vanguard of programming.

The video is in German.
