  A reply on Talk: Marco Tempest: The magic of truth and lies (and iPods)

  Aug 24 2011: TED = Technology, ** Entertainment ** and Design.
  And the greatest technological magic I've ever seen is undoubtedly an idea worth spreading to me. ;)

  A comment on Talk: Chris Anderson on TED's nonprofit transition

  Apr 19 2011: He changed TED to a nonprofit organization and now it is influencing lives and the world as a whole even more than most of global for-profits organizations. It's just seeing this some years after to be sure that he was (and still is) a truly visionary!

• A comment on Conversation: Why don't we use technology to have a real Direct Democracy?

  Apr 15 2011: This is a really interesting idea and I'm so happy to know that somehow it is already happening here in Brazil (as seen on the link sent by Lucas Avelleda: http://demoex.ning.com/).
  And just putting my two cents in the security question of the system, a great way to ensure it is just providing the code as Open Source.
  This way, everybody can check if it is safe and propose (voting) something better if not.

• A comment on Conversation: Can someone explain to me why Marijuana is illegal in many countries including the United States?

  Apr 13 2011: This is a really intriguing question once it's deeply influenced by prejudices, for both sides.
  And not only that, it's really difficult to rise the outlay for dealing with it and so the opposite, the outlay for legalizing it.
  Many people try to simplify this to a few outcomes, but for both sides there is much more related outlays for policing, crime, public health and so on, to a question like this have a based on statistics answer.

  A comment on Talk: David McCandless: The beauty of data visualization

  Sep 23 2010: What I found most interesting on this talk was that changing the way of visualizing information we can reach another level of comprehension and generate a new kind of (more) information.
  Looking closer we can discover details.
  Looking wider we can discover patterns.
  In this time of information overload, we just have to pay some attention on how to look at it to find what we want it.

• A reply on Theme: Tales of Invention

  Sep 6 2010: Hahaha! I just came here with the same purpose and had the same deception!
  I really wanted to make this one of my favorite themes.

  A comment on Talk: Jeff Bezos: What matters more than your talents

  Sep 5 2010: Even though he's not the man he seems to be, still the quote: "In the end, we are our choices".
  And this is valid for us as it is for him.
  That's why I prefer to be kind and don't judge him.

• A comment on Talk: Laurie Santos: A monkey economy as irrational as ours

  Sep 5 2010: Hahaha! She really caught me on the experiment. I felt just like a monkey now.
