At the other end of the spectrum from banal iFart applications, Charlie Rose has a great 1 hour interview with Bill Gates on subjects as broad Microsoft's battle in search and his foundation's work in eradicating polio.
I love Charlie Rose not because he is a hard hitting interviewer, but because he is smart and egoless and can get just about anyone to open up. This is a great skill to have with someone like Gates who can be prickly and automaton-like in interviews, but who nonetheless has a lot of worthwhile things to say.

places, and I love making things.
