A bit of translation. At the start of the video you hear off camera, multiple times: "why are you hitting him?" - Khosrow

Sir Tim refused to be specific about which items of data he would help make public, but said he was interested in suggestions from bloggers about what they would like to see. Last weekend, Sir Alan Sugar was appointed as Competitiveness Czar by Mr Brown. Asked whether he was concerned that he might be among a number of public figures used as window-dressing by the government, Sir Tim said: "I am not comparing myself with Sir Alan Sugar in any way, in any dimension." He stressed that he had campaigned for some time for more transparency of data on the web. He also explained he had recently given a speech about the subject in California: "I had the audience chanting 'raw data now!' about government data. This is an important thing to be involved, independent of the politics of the moment." - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie) from Bookmarklet

Being in an audience full of people chanting "Raw data now! Raw data now!" Sorry I missed that. - j1m

"Ever want to ask someone out, but are afraid of getting rejected? This site is your solution! Each user makes a secret list of people they are willing to have a relationship with, ordered by preference. Whenever two users put each other in their lists, a match notification is sent to both people. Then you can get together and do your thing! Notice how noone had to "make the first move"... more... - sofarsoShawn
