The point about the other call staying connected while the conference call was rebooted with new code was pretty cool. And now I know how to pronounce "Erlang"! Thanks. :) All kidding aside, the video did actually give me more insight into Erlang.

Thanks. :)

It reminded me of the science movies from grade school! I can see why Erlang is well on its way to dominance. That was awesome! It reminded me of the science movies from grade school!

What I expected is a RoR-kind of movie, "Do something real working in 20 minutes and 10 lines of code"... The movie was fun, but I am not sure who has those telephone rackspaces at their disposal :) Yes, it illustrates (clearly enough, though) what I have already found out in the web about language.

However, I think we need lot more tutorials or demos for traditonal Java/C#/PHP developers. Rails people did excellent job enticing newcomers. Erlang camp should do better :) This is a nice demo.
