Crockford videos

Douglas Crockford (the guy who wrote the "Javascript: The Good Parts" book) has made a series of videos that cover 3 important topics.
1)Is javascript of course, he shows how to use it to its potential
2)Programming language history. If you are into programming language design, watch the first video, you will learn a lot of information you wont find anywhere.
3)Web Standards. He shows why html/css is broken beyond repair and should be replaced

Doug is on the javascript standards committee and he invented JSON which is an improvement of XML in javascript

I saw those before. I'd take his stuff with a grain of salt. He thinks HTML5 is bad.

His book is also shit. It is too terse to be able to use it for anything useful. Javascript: The Definitive Guide from O'Reilly is far superior IMO.
