The TED story
I was on a flight to Sivas (Turkey), when a complete stranger told me about "this website with all those interesting videos, and you can watch them for free, and they have volunteer translators so that the interesting ideas can spread throughout the world". This got us talking, and he became my boyfriend for the next three years - although we're not together any more, I will never stop loving TED!
