TED- Matt Cutts
TED (www.ted.com) is a non-profit devoted to sharing ideas usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, but today it covers all topics from science to global issues. It accomodates all kinds of speakers from bussinessmen to visionaries, from Bill Gates to a housewife who has something unique to share.
When I first came across the TED talks it was through a talk like the one attached below. I then became fascinated by the volume of input, information and material that is offered through these events held all over the world.
Here is an activity I came across online based on Matt Cutts motivational talk.
