Television Tomorrow

Spending time in the Archive.org's Prelinger Archives is rewarding if you care to dig deep. It's a little like a thift store. You have to poke around to find the really good stuff, but when you find it, it's really good stuff. For instance, I found a video from the 1940s entitled "Television Tomorrow." It's a studio exec riffing on what he calls a new technology...television...and where it may be headed. Check out the downloadable, free video here: http://www.archive.org/details/tomorrow_television

There are short videos on every topic imaginable. They're not in the most intuitive organizational structure, but spend some time. You'll find a gem...like those Jordache Jeans that were SOOOOO cool in junior high.
