My Favorite TED Talks

by Joanna

Are any of you reading this familiar with or fans of TED Talks?  For those of you who are unfamiliar, TED stands for Technology, Education, Design.  They hold conferences all over the world that bring together people and ideas…and they are utterly fascinating.

Below is a list of my favorite TED Talks, in no particular order.  I’m sure there are many, many more that are better than the ones I listed below, but these are the talks that I have actually seen and really like.  If you have time, give some of them a try – they are all under 20 minutes.

Interestingly, as I’m putting this blog together, there are two women with the same last name. Looking into it further, I find out that they are not only sisters, but twin sisters – Jane and Kelly McFonigal! Amazing.

Again, these are just the ones that I found interesting and have actually seen. There are hundreds. Check them out for yourself and let me know what your favorites are!
