Any one else use ted.org?

TED.org hosts a great variety of talks from real designers, business people, artists, you name it. The standard seems to be exceptional.

Here's a few videos that might be of interest -

Some of those are a bit old now, anyone have any better recommendations from ted?

I randomly run across music there sometimes.

I read Larry Page counts out the seconds when someone explains something too slowly. That's nasty, but whenever I watch a TED.org video I see myself doing the same thing. One two three four (TED logo still spinning) five six (still no info) seven eight nine (TED logo still spinning) .... thirteen fourteen fifteen YES! sixteen (speaker starts intro so your dog could understand the issue) seventeen eighteen (still learned nothing, growing a beard)..etc. I stink at passive learning, I don't have the patience.

That CERN one is outdated. Since then they are running out of places to find the God Particle.

Damn, maybe there IS no God?
