Last blog post you watched a TED Talk of Eli Pariser about filter bubbles. So, what is a TED Talk anyway?
TED is a non-profit organization devoted to spreading great ideas to everyone. It started out in 1984 as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design. Thinkers from all over the world are challenged to give a talk in under 20 minutes. There are over 1500 talks available online, for free! TED is coming to Vancouver over Spring Break (March 17-21)...if you have extra $7000 kicking around you can go to the conference! Unfortunately it is already sold out :P Luckily we will be able to watch online for free later :)
Your task for this post is to find a talk on something you're interested in, watch it, and then tell us why we should watch it too! You might end up watching more, they can get addicting...
Have fun and enjoy learning about some great ideas!
