  Excellent video.  The flow is nice and brisk, all the examples are set up well and I never found myself getting bored.  Kudos for the additional visual materials like the notepad titling.  It does a far better job of keeping the viewer's attention than staring at the desktop the whole time.

  haha.  I like how they made fun of starting sentences with "so".  I never understood why nearly everybody in these videos says "so" instead of "well" or something.  Is it one of those radio personality coaching techniques "whatever you do, don't say 'um' or ah' "?

  Environmental issues aside, I'm sure any company is interested in consuming less power because that translates into cost savings.
  

• Script# and Microsoft ASP.NET AJAX Demo

  Wow, that's some really cool functionality!  Are there any commpatibility or performance issues with using Script#?  I'm guessing that if there were, it would be a matter of updating the library, rather than a user having to adjust all their code across an entire project.
  
  I dig it!

  Is there a blog of some sort for Ruby.NET?

  Truly outstanding video.  This interview practically answered each question I had as I watched it;  How will resolutions on the PC and Xbox be supported?  What about debugging and breakpoints?  What about Live support? etc.
  
  Great interview.  Can't wait for a part 3.

  I wish this sort of thing existed back when I was trying to make games in QuickBasic.  Everyone has it easy today.

  
  
  Hah, those were the good old days.  Using those CLS commands way too much, trying so hard to figure out what CHR's the arrow keys were, and of course, playing Gorilla and Sammy the Snake!
  
  Those days paved the way for me being able to code what I can in XNA these days.

  Woo, first post!  More XNA videos would be great, its an exciting platform and there just isn't enough content for it yet.

  I like the "teams" atmosphere.  Working with a group that's excited and focused on something keeps the momentum of a project going.  This looks like the sort of environment where that kind of thing would thrive.

  Handy stuff.
  
  Although I know it would be easy to do, it would have been nice had the progress bar been used to show database load progress as well.
