Here are a few more TED Talks I think are definitely worth watching. I'm still going through a long backlog of TED Talks so you'll find these are a couple of years old. Still, if you haven't watched all the TED Talks over the last five years, you might find some here that you hadn't seen. These are great ones, in my opinion.

Okay, so now that you know what podcasts I listen to on a regular basis, here is an update of some TED talks I've watched and really enjoyed. Again, there are plenty of TED talks I watch and don't really get much from, and others I watch and think "Okay, that was fine to watch once but I'm not sure I'd recommend it to others, and I wouldn't take the time to watch it again." These talks, in my opinion, are definitely worth watching again.

Here are a few more TED talks that I've enjoyed listening to and are worth repeating. Lately, I've watched / listened to a lot of TED talks that I've found mildly interesting but not that good, or where I've felt that the speaker has rambled, or I didn't really get the point of the talk. Trust me, I'm filtering a lot.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy these TED talks:

I don't know what happened to the time, but I haven't made the time to update the blog lately. However, I have been continuing to go through the backlog of TED talks, so here are my notes on a bunch of TED talks I've listened to over the past couple of months and have enjoyed. I hope you do, too.

I've been away on vacation for a few weeks in India (more on part of that vacation in a different blog post; we stayed in an eco lodge that was fantastic). But the TED talks don't stop, and I've got a few more that I've enjoyed watching for various reasons. I hope you do, too.

I've been traveling in the last couple of weeks, and somehow haven't made time to write about the latest group of TED Talks I recommend watching. I'll try to remedy that now; here are three more TED Talks I've enjoyed and find stimulating to watch.
Bill Gross is an inventor, and he spends his 18 minutes talking mostly
about his quest to find a way to capture solar energy cheaply. He walks

I didn't manage to get the time last week to go through my collection of watched TED Talks, but I have a few more this week to share.
By the way, I would also be happy to write about TED Talks that I've watched and do not think are worth watching and I can explain my reasons why. If you're interested, let me know and I'll write some thumbs-down reviews,s too.
With that, here are a few TED Talks I think are worth watching.

This
week I'm throwing in a few of my favorite TED talks with no apparent
theme. I like them each for different reasons. I'll get right to it;
here are some TED talks I've found interesting; check them out via these
links or directly on itconversations.com.

Sometimes I read the
Presentation Zen blog because I enjoy learning about how to make presentations more interesting and effective. This morning I ran across a posting on the blog that mentions a guy named
Hans Rosling; the posting said he's great at presenting statistics, which happens to be something I need to do for a talk of my own soon.
