My TED Story
My first impression by TED is from Adora Svitak: What adults can learn from kids. Certainly not because she is an Ethnic Chinese, but because I had the same feeling. From that moments, I begun to realize the magic of TED and I believe I will become one of speakers on TED.
My TED is: Technology, Education, Development.

A comment on Conversation: As a TEDx organizers I wish there were this feature on ted.com/tedx. Please propose a suggestion or an idea around future functionality.
Because I feel TEDxSuzhou miss many people who are in TEDx Community, living Suzhou and also have same passion. I met some other TEDx organizers on TED Audition and most of us don't know each other.
How can we connect with each other through ted.com/tedx? Connect people based on common ground, such as interests, career, location, etc.
( http://www.douban.com/location ) This is a website I use for TEDxSuzhou's team building at the very beginning and it works. It helps me to find people in same city with same passion and interests.
Connect and Be Connected. Based on common ground, I wish the feature on ted.com/tedx can connect people, connect ideas, connect action.
A comment on Talk: Yochai Benkler on the new open-source economics
Economy is actually a collective behavior. Sometime we just don't realize it, as Adam Smith said, The Invisible hands.
The Information Technology is changing our life and mind. It gradually transform the Invisible hands into visible.
Personal Opinion. Your thoughts.
