- dotuplink, on 07/07/2009, -3/+47TED needs to get a TV station! I would never leave the house, school would become obsolete!
- TheKillDoctor, on 07/07/2009, -2/+41I've learned more form TED in the past year than I did in the last 4 years of school.
- rromansanturio, on 07/08/2009, -2/+29Why aren't TED talks more famous? Oh look a cat boxing a rooster!!!
- sockpuppets, on 07/08/2009, -3/+23I watched TED and now I'm pregnant. And I'm a guy!
- javy925, on 07/08/2009, -3/+18while I love TED, the internet was developed for porn. no question about it.
- GalOnDigg, on 07/08/2009, -2/+17I love TED. Such a great way to spend 20 minutes.
- depro9, on 07/08/2009, -2/+15TED is what the Internet was developed for. Adios knuckle daggers have fun watching tmz & reality tv.
- tehsuck1, on 07/08/2009, -0/+11Is it just me or does it seem like that talk was a little lacking in content? I love TED but I don't think I have really learned much of anything about how "How can we best engage our brains to help us better understand big ideas."
- JYoungest1, on 07/08/2009, -1/+8I ***** love TED and Fora.TV it gives me faith in humanity when there is little to give me such a feeling.
- mfrancis107, on 07/08/2009, -0/+6Only 20 minutes? I can easily spend hours watching TED videos and reading the information about the speakers.
- mfrancis107, on 07/08/2009, -1/+7Dugg for TED.
TED has changed my life. - seventoes, on 07/08/2009, -0/+4Me too... Is there a torrent available of all the TED talks? All I can find is Better Off Ted and Bill And Ted's Excellent Adventure...
- Hockey13, on 07/08/2009, -0/+4I don't know "what" you're "talking" about".
- Wingin, on 07/08/2009, -0/+4It wasn't the best ever TED.
I did like the whiteboard thing though. What they were doing was putting EVERYTHING up there in one big visual - with the big headings and the smaller points all available to be seen from a distance. I find that very meaningful.
I have to try to do it for myself using the 39+ books I have been given by my department, which describe how to do my job, because that's how things work for me. It's useful to know that other people are like that too.
I just turned around and counted the books, but I know I missed some. Do I have a high tech job? No I'm just a teacher and those books contain nothing that was in the education courses I studied to get qualified. It would be so good to see their essence, related to my tasks, and at least be able to consistently visualize how they fit together. (I just really hope I'm not the first person to try.) - p3ngwin, on 07/08/2009, -0/+4you can install MIRO, it uses Bit-torrent to download and share all files, aggregate RSS video feeds and channels, and loads more for convenient fetching and viewing of media.

- ButterBuddha, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3To zombies, the brain means food...
- Bloodwine, on 07/08/2009, -4/+7"information designer" = ***** artist
- ripple123, on 07/08/2009, -1/+4um. hmm. a guy points out some parts of the brain that process visual information, then shows us a time lapse of people planning stuff on a whiteboard. well ***** me, thats so very exciting.
- donotclickjim, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3In summary, we create meaning through our visual, physical and persistent interaction with the world. It makes me wonder though, if sight is so crucial to meaning then how do people born blind interpret the world around them? What's it like to recall a memory for a blind person? When blind people dream do they see colors or images?
- javy925, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3I agree but the problem is that this guy was only given ~6 minutes
- mrfish, on 07/08/2009, -0/+3Knowing TED it's probably TWINS!
- niffx, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2You can easily apply these principles to make better websites too. All websites should be visually engaging, interactive and augment behavior.
- nurbsenvi, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2Bravo.
- firebhaal, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2only with the intent that TED would make it fully immersive
- mrfish, on 07/08/2009, -0/+2I wish I had knuckle daggers!
- nietzscheanx, on 07/09/2009, -0/+1Well yeah if it's really a cat boxing a rooster
- depro9, on 07/08/2009, -1/+2lol
- depro9, on 07/08/2009, -0/+1I'm sure you could have some implanted.
- silversilver, on 07/08/2009, -1/+2Who the ***** is TED?
- Sipolino, on 07/12/2009, -0/+0Approved from Financial Polis (http://www.financialpolis.it)
- radq, on 07/09/2009, -0/+0For the entrepreneurs out there http://bit.ly/lEAj1
- BenJoven, on 07/09/2009, -0/+0TED makes me want to cut myself.
- ripple123, on 07/08/2009, -3/+2what. the internet was designed for wankers to post content free videos of themselves *****.
- XkenX87, on 07/08/2009, -4/+3Ted from Bill and Ted? Why doesn't anyone like Bill
- depro9, on 07/08/2009, -2/+1It's called boxee install it today!
- p3ngwin, on 07/08/2009, -2/+1or MIRO.
- ophello, on 07/08/2009, -5/+3How is it that there is still an "us" after the brain "creates" meaning"?
There is always one more layer beneath some new layer that is discovered.
