Tom D. from Mass. emailed me to ask what iPad Apps I would recommend. Well I already did a post on this topic not to long ago, but there is one app I think deserves special mention: TED Talks. The TED app is proof positive of the old adage, “the best things in life are free.” The TED “people” so to speak describe their app as, “riveting talks by remarkable people, free to the world.” Indeed. If you hit the “inspire me” button you are asked to pick your subject of interest. Your choices: jaw dropping. persuasive, beautiful, fascinating, funny, inspiring and informative. The amazing thing is that the appellations are not hype. These talks actually live up to their billing. The app itself is works beautifully with never a crash. You can also search by keyword or pick one of the many recent featured talks. Recent talks I watched: Brian Cox: “Why We Need Explorers’ and Brian Greene’s “Is Our Universe the Only Universe?” Both talks are amazing. Check them out or any of the 100 other topics that may interest you. Check TED out. Also available for iPhone or through iTunesU.
