TED Talks - Take Advantage!

A few years ago I discovered TED Talks and I've been taking advantage of them and spreading the word about them ever since. TED Talks are an example of what a great resource the Internet can be for millions of people, giving access to terrific information on a wide range of topics. Short, entertaining and information filled sessions on hundreds of thousands of subjects.

If you haven't ever heard of TED Talks or listened to any of their sessions here's a brief description taken directly from their website:

"TED is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18minutes or less). TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design covered, and today covers almost all topics - from science to business to global issues - in more than 100 languages. Meanwhile, independently run TEDx events help share ideas in communities around the world."

So here's a place where you can hear well known experts or up and coming doers and thinkers talk about leadership, education, technology, business practices, politics, philosophy, architecture and any number of other topics. It's all there for the taking and sharing. My advice is, take advantage of it and spread the word about it. We all benefit.

So click on the link and begin to enjoy TED Talks.
