Your speech was great! Very spontaneous. It took me a lot of time to listen to it all, as it was interrupted almost every 30”. I voted for you!

TEDx presentation sur l’anti-matière……Très intéressé mais aurai voulu comprendre quel portée pour l’humanité de prouver l’existence ? Quelles applications ? Merci d’avoir réussi à transmettre un sujet aussi complexe, en si peu de temps et à captiver une audience dont les connaissances en la matière paraissaient relativement faibles…….y compris moi-même – Antoine NAVA – Genève

Hans Roslings the best stats you’ve ever seen – got me completey hooked on Tedtalks with his mixture of fresh insights, easy manner and humorous but memorable presentations – not to mention the awesome graphics.

I love Elizabeth Gilbert’s talk too. She combines wisdom and lightness in a very special way, which is only hers.

Elizabeth Gilbert on nurturing creativity. She’s fueled by a mix of intelligence, passion and chatty exuberance which makes her irresistible.

Why not show the trailer with its 6 suare meters of photovoltaic panels?

Why is there no trailer category (for solar cars and bikes) at the trans-australian solar race?

Is it because it might inspire aircraft builders to design an aircraft trailing a flexcell ribbon… to outfly Piccard’s Solar Impulse?

Please note that I had proposed a single-wheel bike trailer with 1 square meter of photovoltaic panels (2 m long) on its cover for the Swiss national exibition Expo 02 as early as 2001.

Louis Palmer is totally unknown by the Swiss public, his solartaxi might as well have been sabotaged by the energy lobbies.

I wish Piccard a good and safe flight!

And Louis Palmer a Nobel prize!

Dawkins on ‘Is the Universe queerer than we can suppose’. Close seconds to Hans Rosling, Lee Smolins, Aimee Mullins, Helen Fischer, and Eva Ensler. Tough, very tough.

Mmm, I also like Hans Rosling, but would like engaging with what Richard Dawkins, Ken Robinson, Lee Smolin and Dan Ariely have to say.
One of the most important idea I found on TED is given by Peter Donnelly. People have a very poor understanding of stats, when they actually are everywhere nowadays. This then would link to the short call by Arthur Benjamin.

Hum… I have quite a few favorites… If I were to choose a couple I guess i’d select the first Hans Rosling talk, as well as the Jeff Han multitouch demo, which was just mind-blowing this being before any manufacturer had implemented (or at least publicly) this tech in anything…
