I found this PyCon2010 presentation to be excellent:
The Mighty Dictionary, Branden Craig Rhodes, 30 min.

Even knowing Python for over a decade, I learned a few things.

Unfortunately, that clip seems to be unwatchable, at least for me. It
crashed the Netscape plugin in Konqueror, and crashed Firefox. When I
downloaded the ogv file, it crashed MPlayer and Kaffeine. Before
crashing, in all four players, it displayed random blocks of colours and
lines while the sound played.

Not a good advertisement for either BlipTV or Ogg :(

It played in VLC without problems.
