The Last Lecture - Randy Pausch

Posted July 25th, 2008 by Shawn Petriw

Randy Pausch passed away this morning.

He's the famed Carnegie Mellon University computer scientist who delivered a moving "Last Lecture" in September, 2007, resulting in over 3 million views on YouTube. His talk was titled "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams."

Pausch said "The lecture was for my kids, but if others are finding value in it, that is wonderful.”

Trust me; it's wonderful. If you haven't watched it, you need to take an hour or so and do it.

And bring the kleenex.
