A really good site to visit regularly

www.ted.com

TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds. Since then its scope has become ever broader.

The annual conference now brings together the world's most fascinating thinkers and doers, who are challenged to give the talk of their lives (in 18 minutes).

This site makes the best talks and performances from TED available to the public, for free. More than 200 talks from our archive are now available, with more added each week. These videos are released under a Creative Commons license, so they can be freely shared and reposted.

here is an example

I love this site and subscribe with my iTunes so all the lastest and greatest come straight to me, if I had to pick an absolute favourite it would have to be Ken Robinsons: Do schools kill creativity? An absolute must watch :-)
