Check out some of the other clips from episode 21 as well. They showed
some pretty interesting spaces and projects.
I would also like to thank Chris Anderson for taking the time to show
off (and be the first entry on) our Wall of Fail, because people
seemed to love it. Since the original Wall of Fail in the Laboratory
for Recreational Computing office at University of Cincinnati no
longer exists (the LaRC office was moved) I am very glad that this
idea could carry on in another form.
I talked to a friend about it and he pointed out that it emerged when
a LaRC member had miserably failed a test for a class, and taped the
test up on the wall for everyone to see and laugh about (or perhaps to
remind him to study, since people would often study for class in the
office). Other members followed suit anytime they screwed up really
badly on a test, and a pretty good collection accumulated there over
time. Eventually someone dubbed it the "Wall of Shame" (so I guess I
had the title wrong - but I think it also had "All hail ye kings of
fail!" written below it.)
