The NYTimes track down the FunTwo, the guy behind the wonderful YouTube Canon video. If you haven't already seen the video, then you definitely should.

With all the lamentation about what YouTube is worth, this piece is one of those that reminds you that the real value of YouTube for users is how it's opening up the world for amateur performers. Seeing Johann Pachelbel's Canon realised on a single rock guitar is a wonder to watch as well as listen to.
