TED

TED talks recently held their conference in Oxford. TED started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from three disciplines: Technology, Entertainment, Design but their scope is now broader. It is essentially a Talks mecca, with a $6000 pilgrimage to conference sites in Long Beach, California and Oxford. Thankfully, they broadcast their talks. Hear Alain de Botton on success, failure and why we should define individually what this means i.e dance to your own tune.
