Rodney Mullen @ TED: free software like skateboarding?

I suggest you the whole talk even if you aren't into skateboarding because:
1. Rodney Mullen is a joyful person
2. Rodney Mullen is a great champion and pioneer who teaches humility
3. Rodney Mullen makes an interesting parallel between skateboarding and free software. I won't spoil it but I think we can discuss it!

Never thought I'd see Rodney Mullen mentioned here! What an understatement, he's the master and a pioneer.

I've seen this a few times but don't remember him talking about software, will have to watch it again. What a legend.
