    Amazing, I watch all the TED talks online and its great to see what goes on behind the scene. I think that a story told with such fluidity and clarity should be featured on the TED.com web site. Amazing audio visual communication!
    Much respect.

    Really fluidly crafted story. I've always wanted to see a behind-the-scenes of TED. The on-stage presentations are always great, but your video confirmed my feeling that the story behind the story would be even more interesting and inspiring. Really well done.
