TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started in 1984 as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment and Design. Since then its scope has become ever broader.

TED.com was launched in 2006 to bring content from the TED conference to the wider world. Our website allows people to search more than 750 (and counting) talks by topic, speaker or tag, to find inspiration, education, surprise and wonder, and to share it with friends. The site also provides an innovative engine for crowd-sourced translation. To date, more than 300 million TEDTalks have been viewed around the world in 77 languages.

TED.com is informative and addictive. The site is clean, navigable and designed to make “ideas worth spreading” easy to do.
