This morning at TEDGlobal 2010, our executive producer of TED Media, June Cohen, gave a sneak peek of the Global Conversation Project. Sponsored by GE, this development will let our TED.com users start and find a conversation in any language, to develop a truly worldwide conversation surrounding TEDTalks. Even more, the upcoming project will allow TED.com users to start and join conversations on any topic — beyond making comments on a particular talk or theme, you’ll be able to ask questions, pitch projects, wax philosophical in a freeform, multilingual conversation. Expect to see it live on-site this fall!
