If you’ve got 15 minutes spare and enjoy Malcolm Gladwell’s fantastic story-telling, then watch this TED Talk on the Norden bombsight. Fascinating. There’s lessons to be learnt here folks!

Big History.

Take 18 minutes out of your schedule and watch this powerful history of the universe.

(by David Christian on TEDtalks)

If you’re a Christian, a Jew or a Muslin, I challenge you to watch this video completely and take the 1st step.

In fact, even if you’re not, William Ury’s principles for conflict management are fantastically simple and profound.

Keep your goals to yourself!

Hans Rosling does it again!

Wow, I love the way this guy presents. His famous previous presentation used nifty software tools to present complex data. Now this time he uses plastic boxes and toys. Proof, that if you’re a good presenter you don’t need PowerPoint or even a projector.

By the way, if you haven’t seen the 1st one, perhaps watch it first here.
