John Hodgeman and his great lecture at TED
John Hodgeman just published a new book, which he announced at The Daily Show. Kind of. You could call it an meta-introduction of the book: he mocked every book-introducing by Jon Stewart, especially his "fascination" by every book he is presenting.

That preacher sure is crazy. But the media are so much worse...
Media coverage of this Obama's former preacher is horrible.
Luckily, there is The Daily Show to make it even worse :-)

Iraq after 5years (and backwards)
Five years? This war gets longer and longer. Jon points out some paradox quotes and declarations made by president Bush and puts them in retrospective so they make some sense...
John Hodgman talked about similarly it in his Keys to Success:

7 jobs of "The PC Guy" John Hodgman
You surely know John Hodgman, American humorist and one of the best Daily Show correspondents, in my opinion. But first, I encountered him in hilarious commercials from Apple Computers. I'm sure you know them: Hello, I'm a Mac... And I'm a PC. Here is one of the best collections of "Get a Mac" ads:
But John Hodgeman is a man of many occupations. I decided to review them. I enjoyed putting this together, so I hope you'll enjoy it as well. If you love John Hodgman, you will know most of them by now, but a comprehensive collection never hurts.
John Hodgman - Computer Expert (Net Neutrality)
John Hodgman - Historian (When to judge Bush)
John Hodgman - Astronom (Is Pluto a Planet?)
In Prague Atronoms decided that Pluto is not a planet. Why? Because it is roughly the size of a glass eye.
John Hodgeman - Meteorologist
How do experts predict the future weather? John Hodgman majored in hurricanes, his minor were Crisp Fall Days :-)
John Hodgman - Physician, Medical Expert
Talking about Human Growth Hormone.
John Hodgeman - Martial Arts Expert
John Hodgman - Motivational Speaker
This is my favorite: John explains is system 8 keys to success.
There are several more occupations, but that would be for another spot. Thanks for watching, if you liked this, keep an eye on Best videos of Daily Show blog :-)

Early electronic voting systems in USA
"Can electronic vote be trusted?" asks the Wall Street Journal article back from November 2006. Despite my zeal for virtually anything electronic, I must say that I was quite concerned about this kind of questions. If the system is owned by a private company, you can't really tell what is happening with your vote, and you have no way to check it, given there is no palpable evidence of how you voted.
But as John Hodgman explains, that doesn't matter. You can just imagine that "things" happen inside the computer.
And while we're at it, have a look at this (well known and old, but hilarious nonetheless) video of how that might eventually work... Electronic voting: Kerry and Bush

Hodgman talks about the terrorist brand
This might be pushing it too far. But, well, humour is important, and it shows in overemphasize how media sees Al-Qaeda.
I will bring more of John Hodgman soon. His observations and ability to talk seriously is marvelous.

Bhutto believed islam is being hijacked
Benazir Bhutto, Pakistan politicion and activist, was killed this Christmas (December 27 2007). On The Daily Show, Jon talks to Mark Siegel, who wrote a book about Democracy in Islam. The book was finished a week before the murder occured. This interview is quite serious, and I am glad it got this prime time.
This is Jon's interview with Musharraf, president of Pakistan, who refused to give her propper support and protection after the first attempt to assassinate her. She watched the interview and allegedly thought of it positively, as Siegel recounts.
To lighten it up, here is John Hodgeman with his perception of nuclear weaponry.

Net Neutrality explained by John Hodgman
I first saw John Hodgman in the Mac - PC commercials, and I loved him. It kind of made me feel better about my choice of PC in fact. So I was amazed to actually see him in my new-discovered and soon-favorite show - The Daily Show. Here he talks about the Net Neutrality act.
There is also a YouTube version of this clip. I like the part where he talks about all the crap going around the internet, for example Chuck Norris Jokes.
