Diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer, computer science professor Randy Pausch, decided to give his last lecture in front of a full auditorium in September 2007. The lecture is about achieving your childhood dreams and inspiring others. I am not going to write so much more about it, but just recommend that our readers watch this video, as almost 12 million people have done already on You Tube.
In the “Must see” category we pick interesting and inspiring videos that we find on the video sharing sites, mainly YouTube, showing people who are in general not associated with GLI, but say or do things that we believe our readers will find interesting.

Wow, this is without a doubt one of the most surprising and inspirational things I’ve ever seen. What an incredible man. A man full of big ideas, dreams, but also realism and pragmatism. I imagine he would have been a fascinating person to know.
