Installing Turbogears meets IMDb from scratch

I have given my Turbogears meets IMDb webprogramming and scripting lecture again and produced a little video for it. You can see me getting the project to run on a vanilla machine (Python 2.5 and easy_install already installed) in less than two minutes.

  1. selecting a movie from existing collection and show movie info together with own notes
  2. search for a movie with fuzzy search-terms

Note: the video is encoded as Flash and plays fine in IE7 but seems to have problems playing on my Firefox. So try IE if it doesn’t seem to play on your machine.
