I suspect Facebook is going to die "The Orkut Death"!

However, When it comes to emails and spams, what is the meaning of the word "inappropriately"? Thats the question.

Sir Ken Robinson's talk on Do schools kill creativity? Its worth watching.

https://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_cre...


I didn't like the conclusion that switching to a school was a solution that supports a specific kind of creative activities, because the example was not convinving. A Dance Carreer is famous for competition so much so it was featured as a storyline on the Simpsons. OTOH the school might just have been exceptional, but then it proofs nothing. Edit: Still, I like that the problem is interesting enough for the talk to become prominent.


While I agree with all of the above, I think the talk was masterfully crafted for success. I doubt it would've been nearly as successful without the mention of a mega celebrity or if it recommended unschooling.

Honestly I'd rather have 5+ million people or whatever the view count get exposed to thinking which puts school structure into question than have a talk providing better solutions.


Aaand... 2 hours gone watching all Ken Robinson's talks. Brilliant stuff!


Yes, I forgot about this one but it's a TED Talks classic.


The data accuracy is terrifying, really. Also, I visited shopping centre last week and in the next morning, I got Facebook Notif asking me if I would like to review the visit. I felt very annoying.

The problem is real.


Annoying? That's terrifying and I'd feel terrified.
