I discovered TEDtalks maybe only a year ago when my friend linked me to a talk done by George Watsky, an extremely talented poetry slammer. After watching it, I became very intrigued with what TEDtalks was all about. I began marathoning video after video, talk after talk, and I came to love the idea. TED's catch phrase "ideas worth spreading" was so simple yet so encompassing of what TEDtalks are all about. Talk topics can range anywhere from sixth sense technology to how to tie shoes properly.
The great thing about TEDtalks is that no matter the topic of the talk, the viewer is always able to walk away having learned something. For me personally, even if the talk isn't about something relatable, I always feel inspired and mindblown afterwards. My personal favorite TEDtalks that I've watched so far is Terry Moore's "How to tie your shoes", Theo Jansen's "My creatures: a new form of life", and George Watsky's spoken word presentation.
