It's our 400th TEDTalk today
For those keeping score, Aimee Mullins' funny and astonishing TEDTalk this morning marks our 400th TEDTalk.
I asked followers of the TEDtalks Twitter stream to name some sleeper hits from the archives -- talks they didn't think they would like but did. Here are a few replies -- which may send you looking for your own favorite sleepers:
@ghostpressbed Where have the bees gone? by Dennis vanEngelsdorp was my 'sleeper' hit. There are about 2 dozen that I can watch on repeat all day
@LaneEllen ... the talk on Fungi. I was amazed - but really had no interest when it started.
@AdrianEvans has to be Benjamin Zander on music and passion, not really one for the music stuff but this got me good
Name your favorite sleepers, either by commenting here if you can, or sending an email to contact@ted.com.
