The TED story

I first came across TED site when I was flicking through a magazine in a Prague underground and saw a short column about this site there. I made a mental note to self to have a look at it later that day. The very first talk I saw was the one by Sir Ken Robinson, speaking about creativity. I was immediately hooked. Like as if he was representing all things good that make this site so inspiring. I bought his book The Element soon after seeing his talk and whenever I feel any sort of trouble coming my way I turn to this book. I don´t think I have ever been interested in any online project as much as I am in TED. Being in a constant awe, watching the videos and thinking to myself what a fantastic thing it is, to be able to see this from this very chair in my room that I am sitting on. My TED story is simple. I seek inspiration and here is where I get so much of it I am often overwhelmed. In a good way. Actually, in the best way possible.
