A giant pity party
April 19, 2023

Basically a pity party where a good bunch of the speakers rant on about all the injustices done to them because of their race gender or sexual preference. A convention of Victims. Women of the world are under danger of extinction.
Out of 100 speakers there are 7 white Christian men.
Why me need not apply.

Get smart!
January 27, 2018

I really like the videos from TED, because you learn something new, everytime you watch a new video. They always (well almost) have great speakers which really draw your attention. Great to improve your overall knowledge

So. Much. Knowledge. All for free. I love how people can add subtitles for others and no one has to pay for it.

Good free stuff
June 7, 2017

I watch these on youtube and play them while stuck in traffic. I enjoy the diverse topics but sometimes they are a little full of themselves. I like how they stream one after another.

Great lectures and some of those were a great motivation to me and showed what to aim for - the lecturers recorded here surely know their topics to talk about and moreover to tell the story the way its understood and used properly!

Great Lectures
January 16, 2017

Lectures are thought provoking and vary with a broad selection of topics but the video files on the TED website have some glitches that unfortunately blemish the experience of listening and watching the speakers. For example the video will begin playing and then the visuals will stop and the audio will keep going. Which means you can hear the speaker but you can't see any of their diagrams or presentation slides. Annoying.

Great!
June 30, 2017

TED is simply awesome. I go to the website when I'm looking for inspiration. When I need answers to some of my own questions. When I'm lloking for new ideas. When I want to learn something new. When I want to find out how people transform the world for the better. I listen to a TED talk almost every night while cooking dinner.

TED is great
November 12, 2013

TED is great. My only gripe is that it can be a little difficult to find talks on the exact subject you want, but I like the site and it's definitely worth a visit. Content is king, after all!
