The headline says it all - Robert Scoble, grand master of the blogosphere, just posted an interview with bill gates. You can check out the entire 16 minute video at Channel 9. No doubt this will be all around the blogosphere in a matter of hours.

Some interesting tidbits:

• Bill remains buoyant about speech recognition, despite its current limitations


• He is a proponent of Microsoft's Tablet PC, and hopes to create a sub-$500 Tablet for students to store their textbooks in


• According to Scoble, Bill's office isn't exactly in the same league as Donald Trump's. (As far as I know, Scoble hasn't yet scored an interview with the Trumpmeister himself, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time!)

PS. If you're using Firefox, you might want to switch over to Internet Explorer to watch the clip.
