Randy Pausch





The sad yet inevitable has happened..Randy Pausch has passed away.

The former professor at Carnegie Mellon was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and became an Internet sensation after his inspirational Last Lecture
became viral on YouTube.

His famous "Last Lecture" lasts a good 1hr and 16minutes. So please, whenever you find the time, watch this video.
His story brought me to tears and I promise it is not yet another Oprah mundain tear-jerker story. This is one of those stories everybody should simply know of. We all need a little bit of stardust....

For all of you who are furthely interested in Randy's story, he has come out with a book called "The Last Lecture" and its a hell of a bestseller.
You can get it on Amazon through this link: http://www.amazon.com/Last-Lecture-Randy-Pausch/dp/1401323251
