... is the way it started out, but today, TED covers most aspects of life.
Have you- Do you watchTED?
I started with it on Netflix, and am hooked. Not all the time, because it can be heavy, and sometimes ya just don't wanna have to think... but for interest in what's going on in the world, a great source.
The recent thread on Singularity, came from watching the Larry page interview with Charlie Rose, and now the NSA's response to the recent TED interview with Edward Snowden makes for interest in the news behind the news.
The breadth of topics is infinite, from business, art, music, health, to sex, to animal behavior, work rules, and yes, retirement.
It's not an all day thing... most talks ranges from about 5 minutes to a half hour. The hardest thing for me to handle was the humility of finding out how much I don't know... followed by the disheartening revelation that I'll never know.
So... do you or have you watched TED?
The newer website allows you to watch online. Give it a try... here:
