TED: Videos of Speeches from Top Thinkers

TED, The Technology, Entertainment, and Design event is tabbed as the "pre-release version of Heaven."  I don't know if it can live up to this billing but I do know that I really like to be able to see the videos of the speeches of some of the world's foremost thought leaders, authors, and researchers with the click of a mouse. Check out http://www.ted.com/tedtalks/ to see the videos of presentations at TED from the likes of Malcom Gladwell, Tony Robbins, and Al Gore.  Valuable quick knowledge acquisition here through the essence of many great books found presented here in 30 minutes by the authors.
