In anticipation of TED 2011 here is a look behind the scenes at TED 2010. Wonderfully moving and a peak at what it takes to produce TED each year. I remember when I discovered TED in 2006 via podcasts. I've seen every talk released so far. Discovering TED wasn't just about "ideas worth spreading," but also about ideas worth studying, worth learning.
