just for kicks I decoded the QR code in the middle of the video, hoping for an easter(or rather xmas) egg, but alas only the rather boring http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/

Ugh. I did the same and was also very disappointed.

How fast can average QR decoders using a phone camera work? Would they decode the QR code from the playing video, or would you have to pause it? Just curious.

I had to screencap the video (their play button covers the video when paused). The QRReader app on iPhone wasn't fast enough to scan it during the video.

Serious question: Is anything MIT-related worth voting up? Because I don't think the content of this video was particularly worth submitting to HN.

Clicked link. Saw Flash Block. Realized this is almost 2012. Clicked back.

Nothing of value was missed.
