I was watching one on sharks. The subject matter was really interesting, but all of the fluff involved got to me and I had to turn it off. I prefer more of a documentary style video that gets straight to the point, I don't need the soft cushy feel.

I have a few hipster style friends that are mentioning TED talks often. It makes me think that people watch them as a way to feel enlightened, as opposed to doing.

I read an article once about a talk Zuck was giving on management. The article pointed out that the room was full of hundreds of Silicon Valley 20-somethings and a small handful of old-school business types. The old-school guys were taking notes, the 20-somethings were not.

Watching < realizing.
