Hans Rosling, a swedish researcher, debunks a few myths about the developing world with an urgent efficacy that is compelling to watch. The liberated data literally unfolds before your eyes...
Then move over jobs and the iphone - I then got wowed by and Jef Han's visionionary research on multitouch displays, a sensibly futuristic interface between man and computer. He didn't fail to mention (or at least imply) that it was scalable enough to throw on the 100 dollar computer....There's an even better vid with no yackedie yak, where Jeff just goes at it like hes in the Matrix..apologies to those @ sub broadband speeds..
As if that wasn't enough, watching the 11 year old violin prodigy Sirena Huan from Connecticut perform humbled me - like for real i need to haul some 24-yr-ol ass and develop a talent! How is such virtuosity achievable in a 5 years? Is this indigo child theory for real???
Its confirmed, TEDtalks is a resource too neat not to share.

If you enjoyed the music you may enjoy another dude called Rives who was doing spoken word. he was phenomenal, even though didn't shika it all...
indeed, you can subscribe to most of the talks and download them to your video ipod... Definitely awesome stuff
