So SJ posted about the hoopla over the fake footprint fireworks from the Olympics. I don't care too much about the hoopla as much as the fact that I cannot find a video of the friggin' show.

The Slashdot article? No link. The Sky article? No link. Telegraph? No dice. CNN? Of course not. At least with Digg, you know one of the first comment is gonna be a link to the video.

Seriously, I find this incredibly annoying. It's 2008 - can we learn to mix videos and stories together? Is it that hard? Especially when you are writing about the video?

Koreans had the video a day earlier. I'm sure that you could find it since you're the King of the Internet. :-P

I don't understand what all the fuss is about. When they were airing it live on NBC, Bob Costas disclosed that it was computer generated.
