Tony Robbins, Julia Sweeney, Rick Warren, Al Gore and the Main Hall audience. Just a few of the images of an incredible week in Monterey. Many more here.

…and some of the early comments from attendees:
"My brain hurts"
"I loved TED last year, but I am now officially addicted. That was amazing."
"I am at once exhausted and regenerated"
"The best TED ever. No question."
"One of the best things — not just conferences — I’ve ever attended. A grandslam."
"Powerful and incredible in every way"
"Life-changing"
"Do I have to go the office tomorrow?"
