TEDx Melbourne January 16, 2009

The annual TED (Technology, Entertainment Design) conference has been running since 1984 and brings together the world's most fascinating thinkers and doers, who are challenged to give the talk of their lives (in 18 minutes).

Topics include global political and environmental issues to discussions on creativity, art and design, fashion and more.

The TED website releases videos of these talks for free distribution.

This event is basically a public screening of videos from the annual TED conferences, with an opportunity for discussion between videos.

There will probably also be several 'real life' speakers to add local context.
