how teutonic of you

rachellehruska:

Check out this video my sister just tweeted that is truly hysterical:

1994: Bryant Gumbel and Katie Couric trying to make sense of this new thing called the “Internet.”

Oh and BTW @katiecouric has come a long way on this “computer billboard” hasn’t she?

UPDATE. Ha. great call on the @ sign, Peter! via Peter Feld: Four great things about this video:

• The Today Show breaks the fourth wall.
• Likely the first email address NBC ever broadcast was “violence@nbc.ge.com”
• Their @ sign is actually a small “a” inside a closed circle.
• “You don’t need a phone line to use the Internet?” “No, no, apparently not.”

Also, Bryant is a total jerk in this video. Do you think it’s because he’s young, thin and handsome still? Also #2, wtf was happening in L.A. this month? quakes?
