    Heya EC!

    I've run into a friend who doesn't know what a TED talk is, so I said I'd show him some examples. I know of a couple decent ones, but most I've just seen in passing, so I can't actually come up with a ton of really good examples.

    That said, anyone know of some great TED (or TEDx) talks that I could share? The topic doesn't matter much, so long as it's interesting. Thanks! :grin:

    Oh, here's mine:

    One of my favourite Ted Talks is by Brene Brown, who has done research on shame, and vulnerability.

    Brene as also given other talks which are really good! :slight_smile:

    ^ that's absolutely insane, yet makes a lot of sense. Thank you so much for that video; I think I'm going to base my term-long project on that idea. Seriously. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
     
  7. Andrew Stanton has also did a TED talk (producer - I think - of Up and Toy Story 3)
