The State of Tech Culture in Iowa

[AdamTheGood]

I think the mindset is there in cities like Ames and Iowa City, but that's about it. Of course the key people in those cities leave once they graduate. I was one of them. Go ISU! :)

[mplsridah]

that state is boring, come to MN, the land of 10,000 lakes...

[jackinla8]

Have you ever been diagnosed with ADD?

lol.

[GaribondTheFierce]

The other half can not survive without utilizing technology, they are shunned by the people who are around them because they think differently and outside of the box and cannot do anything else but. And that small percentage of people that cannot live without utilizing technology sadly move away and those people cannot do anything but.

[GaribondTheFierce]

I feel the exact same way. 75% of the people that live here have TONS of access to technology but they do not use the technology in the ways that would be the most beneficial to them. Half of the people who do use the technology beneficially, stay here find a mediocre job that is completely transverse of what the want to do: utilize technology....

[USBHumpingDog]

Iowa rocks

[Neku86]

Wow, just wow. I've seen a lot of "repost this or else" posts on YouTube, but I think this is the weakest attempt of them all.

[duderseb]

Then why are you watching?

[637041564]

xuparmela

[SM64Guy]

He's a geek.

[frasercjackson]

why would anyone need so many computers around them are you working for the fbi or are you cia what is wrong with you just sit there talking rubbish like an undereducated girl from mars

[dynexpwner]

Wise Word's Chris Wise words

Now for a Limerick Poem:

The man woke up in the morning.

His day was going to be very boring.

He has a friend who is tall.

So he gave his friend a call.

But the man did not wake up in the morning.

(insert Laughter here)

[Aboresh]

This man speaks the truth.  Iowa is a wasteland and will continue to be until we change the paradigm.

[spray3r]

I love you Chris. You are my idol.

[applenerd106]

ooooooooooooooooooooooook

[MrElussive]

*of us

[MrElussive]

Why did I subscribe to this guy? He talks too much and says too little, he's not funny, and he thinks he's cool - ur just another computer geek like the rest of you loser.

[Kitelight08]

i like to think of myself as a pc geek he is funny if u know whats hes on about n he knows his stuff n i apreiate him for tht

[Wolfie4693]

then unsubscribe you IDIOT if you don't like the video or the person who makes them then dont subscribe and if you dont like vids dont leave negative comments you say he wastes your time but you sit here trying to think of smart comments no1 wants to hear it

[mrcheesenips]

He is the best geek of all.

[funckyjunky]

I agree

[protospy]

mrelussive and funckyjunky are so right

[jonxp18]

your right, I personally do not have much of a life and yes I am a bit of a computer geek, but I was always taught to pursue what I'm good at, sure he rants constantly, but he's been a great help to me.

[NileshFowdar]

Kat is so slow in uploading videos now or Chris isn't making any =( , sadly now i cba.

[geoffplunkett]

[neohunter8]

[Kenster1025]

Then you have know "lieF" for watching this biatch

[dacodester]

dude your sideburns are uneven

[hootyhaha]

Everybody needs to bombard COMCAST and G4 with requests to get Pirillow and "Call For Help" back on G4 to have at least 1 tech show ON A GAMING AND TECH STATION! Either that or bombard emails all to SPIKE TV. OR BOTH! We're in an age of PC and MAC tech and what does G4/Comcast do? THEY CANCEL ALL THE TECH SHOWS DER DEE DERRR!! You're all smart enough to find the background emails on Comcast, G4, and SPIKE and not just the up front "CONTACT US" emails that go nowhere. Find'em and send to others.

[racso919]

yes !! lol

[Mangospork]

...no..he's awsome...

[Gfresh1620]

NERD ALERT !

[WiiGeee]

to be technical Chris is a geek, a nerd is more academic and usually studies math.

[n302012]

nerd

[dtrix92]

He's a nerd and proud of it. Like me.

[totallyapple]

A-Men! Me too!!!!

[JGOETTLE]

Wikipedia Rocks!

It's 2007, not 2008?

[17Paperclips]

ahhahaha

[GamerDudeLewis101]

woo hoo!!! (sarcasam)

[jedaqia]

Those who find this boring should take their face out of their computer & play with the sun a little bit.

[YUPnNOPE]

OMG YOU WENT OUTSIDE..! GOOD FOR YOU.! lol. jk.

[leoncariz]

good thoughts, crappy speach.

[gardeniabee]

Yes, you can connect with the world and find plenteous Shakespeare information and links. I had registered with Twitter but was foggy about its benefits were until I listened to this. Thanks, Chris.

[ltsAboutJesus]

Is that a fever blister?

[grimreap792003]

Iowa City is where it's at, not Des Moines

[CharlieKirky]

great video, very meaningful.

[webjthefirst]

RS...s...

[e1ex]

wow. I really like this vdeo. this is very Good to know.

[teckstuf]

Awesome! 5 stars!

[HugoRand]

With technological advances including the internet, people no longer have to go to Seattle or Silicon Valley to participate and communicate with like-minded people. Places like Des Moines are much more desirable in my opinion, and high-tech workers can pretty much work from anywhere now.

[dgentile83]

great speaker!

[Daiden]

Very insightful. I really enjoyed this one.

[AtheriasLeader]

He Sounds like Colonel Tigh lol

[serratedserenity]

RAD!

[dgentile83]

Do you know Dave Keuning? lol

[msa1985]

What kind of Iowa boy doesn't like corn?

[eviltube1111]

I wish this guy talked more tech. His webcam is okay to go to if you have nothing better to do. Also it's mainly him fighting with his wife or screwing around. Questions in chat are never answered. If you need tech info i'd recommend you just go elsewhere.

[Seanuk]

I totally agree with this.

[beyourownit]

like my site

[eviltube1111]

Your page seems much more helpful, yes. =)

[beyourownit]

I try

[djbro16]

Chris Pirillo stand up? what in holy hell?

[KabutoHunter]

"Thank you Chris. Shi-"

[redsnither01]

props on the "old guy" voice

[Quasijuice]

why is Chris advertising tweeter in almost every video

[megotrice]

Probably because he's sponsored by Tweeter.

[bbucek]

I think he explains that

[EMERICA9898]

hahahahhahahah .. he own.. he aswome!!

[MXhm91]

HAHA hillarious old guy voice chris =)

[Darkknight1989]

I LOVE the old man voice that Chris does XD

[techiewire]

"That was great."

"Sure"

"Shi-"

[wiicow]

good old days of interactive uninteractivity

[qabandiman]

LOL@ "that was great chris, SHII.."

[Thsiscool]

that last word that the camera guy said was very similar....lol

[sfbuchmiller]

lol... what a way to end the video camera guy.

[crowleydc]

friendfeed has replaced twitter for me... but you can use twitter within alert thingy and friendfeed

[fireashes]

[CandyHam]

lmfao, nice geezer impression

[tjsdaname27]

I am from cedar rapids IA not to far from des moines I wish I could have came out there....

lol

[renowildbear]

Mr. Pirillo

Will we ever see another tv station like TECHTV?? And would you be on it if there was?

[GenericGamerTag]

Renowildbear, probably not.

[wyldestjoker]
