Do you know about TED? “Riveting talks by remarkable people, free to the world.” Every year, this organization runs a series of conferences bringing together some of the world’s most interesting people for a sharing of ideas. Some of these are held in Oxford, and the most recent one was held this month. These conferences are far from free, but once the conferences are over, the talks are posted on the internet for anyone to watch. I absolutely adore these and find them incredibly inspirational. I’ve posted some of these before, here, here and here. Now here’s one I just recently viewed from the most recent conference. I thought you might like to see it. It’s just over 16 minutes, so watch it when you’re not in a rush. Enjoy:

I did know about it, but a reminder is always useful, because I am really REALLY bad at making time to sit down and watch things.
That sounds intriguing…I shall check that out later!

I’m waiting for the video to down load on my slow connection but in the meanwhile I wanted to say:
1) I love your new look blog and
2) I also love the image on your new book’s cover. Perhaps the lettering needs to be work with a bit but the photo is very inviting.
Thanks for these, I’ll have to check them out.
Dear All: Thanks!And Lauri: Glad you like the new blog look. I thought my blog should have an update to go with the new book. Plus it was so easy and fun!
Great title for that TED video!
