The most amazing website ever

We had a meeting yesterday for our over 100+ team members in Beyond Shopping. They played some inspirational videos on the most awesome website that I have ever come across. Please, please, please go to www.ted.com.

On the left side, under the themes list, select View as List. These things are very innovative, and cutting edge presentations. I loved the one with Jonathan Harris and the Web's Secret Stories. Here is the excerpt.

"Jonathan wants to make sense of the infinite world on the Web -- so he builds dazzling graphic interfaces that help us visualize the data floating around out there. Here he presents "We Feel Fine," a project that scours blogs to collect the planet's emoti(c)ons, and the "Yahoo! Time Capsule," which preserves images, quotes and thoughts snapped up in 2006. And he premieres "Universe," which presents current events as constellations of words -- a tag cloud of our collective consciousness."

They have so many cool presentations. It will take awhile to get through. These folks are brilliant.
