• TED's mission statement begins:
• We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change
attitudes, lives and ultimately, the world. So we're
building here a clearinghouse that offers free knowledge and
inspiration from the world's most inspired thinkers, and
also a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and
each other.
