This is a great site. It's all about 'Ideas Worth Spreading', very INTP friendly. TED is famous for its lectures, known as TED Talks, which originally focused on technology, entertainment and design, but have now expanded in scope to a broad set of topics including science, arts, politics, education, culture, business, global issues, technology and development. I've spent many a night listening to these lectures, I can't recommend this site enough!

Thank you for that website! It is wonderful.

 

[Kassie]

Ahh, TED talks, how I enjoy them. I'm going to watch 2 in class tomorrow. My Math Theory teacher frequently has us watch these in class, at least when he finds some very interesting ones, or we have nothing better to do. It rocks.

Nice, I have already seen some videos by them and think it's a great service. Thanks for spreading the word

I am very big fan of this site, the talks about human brain regarding love/work/etc. in that site is the best thing ever.

This thread has been dead for a while, but hopefully we can bring it back to life. I've found so many ted talks that I enjoy. So I will share one.

This is one I just watched. I found it inspiring. Also, I wonder what the more veteran typologists think he is.

 

[Hawkeye]

I find TED to be hit or miss.

There are some really good talks on there, but there are also a lot of mediocre ones.

 

[Valentas]

I get a lot from TED talks. It is this time which I never regret I spent listening to clever people. Some of them became my inspiration and changed my philosophy from "get more stuff" to "fk that shit and become free" :}

This is one of the few talks I really enjoyed on TED that I still think about and re-watch periodically.
