Hey all,

I really like Ted Talks and watch them frequently so I thought, why not sharing them with you:

I subscribe to the Ted Director channel on youtube. That and Big Think. Those are amazing 5min or so snipits of Ted info. I love Ted.

I enjoy Ted talks as well. There have been some really fantastic topics - highly recommend checking it out.

TED is hit and miss for me. For every mind-blowing David Blane presentation, there's someone talking for an hour about crop rotation.

It's great fodder for people like me that love useless facts. Mental Floss (http://www.youtube.com/user/MentalFlossVideo) is another great one for trivia junkies.

I feel bad always skipping the TEDs when I'm skimming wimp videos haha. The ones I have watched are pretty cool. A friend of a friend works for TED here in the city and I've been meaning to check it out, though I'm not sure if just anyone can go. My school has an annual TED talk on the medical campus. I missed it this year, but I heard it was pretty damn cool.

Some of the TED talks are boring as hell. If one looks like it may be interesting to you then check it out, otherwise don't feel bad.

I'm pretty sure it's a bit of a club as well as a competition of sorts. Those attending are expected to make sizable donations which go to fund the work of presenters that are selected as winners.[DOUBLEPOST=1376016615,1376016448][/DOUBLEPOST]

That's an easy one. Arguments occur when some one has a hard time admitting that I'm right.
