Wil Wheaton Says: Don’t Be A Dick

I was thinking about podcasts, speeches, bloggers, and other geekery today, and I eventually came around to one speech that is the epitomy of geekdom. Two years ago at PAXÂ 2007 Wil Wheaton gave the keynote speech. The topic was video gaming as a social activity, and the entire speech is an excellent refutation of basically everything Jack Thompson has ever said. The highlight of the speech, though, is Wheaton’s exhoration for modern gamers, who largely spend life hidden behind an anonymous wall of bits: Don’t Be a Dick.
