How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
Ward Cunningham, who now works on the PAG team here (platform architecture guidance), was the guy who invented the
Wiki. Even Channel9 now has a Wiki. So, we owe that feature to Ward. Here we start out our interview with him by asking how he came up with the idea for the Wiki. We hear he's lurking here too, so feel free to ask him some
questions of your own.

Maybe that's why I didn't get a raise that year.

It is cool to hear that wiki was born from just being lazy. Is it the truth? Good programmer is a lazry programmer.
