When I was a kid I used to wonder how it would be possible to live forever in Heaven, without getting really bored. And then I realized it wouldn't be that hard because you'd be in the company of some of the most interesting people who ever lived... so TED is really the official pre-release version of heaven.

An interesting blog post pointed me to an amazing performance by a young musical prodigy. I was supremely impressed, and I suspect you will be as well. But listening to the music and watching the picture slide show piqued my interest in TED. I'd never heard of it before, but I've read about it a bit today and now I think it's a stellar idea and I really want to go. Of course, I think it's doubtful that I'd qualify for an invite, even if I could afford the $4000 price tag...

Still want more?
