Please add video tag support. Flash requirement is such a drag.

There is some information about OSS from minute 40 to minute 50, otherwise this is another JSON/Markup history lecture by Crockford. Not bad but definitely the topic should be rephrased.

Waited a long time for this video to be put up :)

JSON is well established without question but that is not the death knell of xml.
JSON does not have any type for time/date and numbers are floats by definition. Yes you can use convention to denote other types but that is beyond the spec - which means a new spec and *more complexity*.
Further JSON formats cannot be described declaratively (no schema).
I agree XML (and related technologies) are now complex but the complexity is just handled by tooling/infrastructure - which are pretty good now.
For example, our B2B message are handled by an XML 'appliance' which can validate messages (WS-Security & XML Schema) at almost wire speeds.
Granted, XML text serialization is verbose but XML has an Infoset (data model) which is independent of any particular serialization format. You can have binary XML serialization (a few standards exist) and who knows maybe in future we will have a JSON-like serialization format for XML too.
