"You can't return to the real world thinking the same thoughts you thought before; you just can't do it."
and...
Anyway, over the next few days, I'll be writing up some of the coolest, most interesting and entertaining talks I heard at TED last week on my blog at nytimes.com/pogue. I'll attempt to limit myself to tech-oriented topics, although with speakers that included Bill Clinton, Richard Branson, James Randi, Lawrence Lessig, Alan Kay, Philippe Starck, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and others, that might not be easy.
In the meantime, here's your homework. Set aside an hour and watch three of the TED talks online back to back.
Then check out these Web sites, whose creators were among the presenters this year:
http://www.bumptop.com (a radical new concept for the computer desktop)
http://www.wefeelfine.org (a visual, real-time emotion meter that depicts the Internet's bloggers)
http://www.bmwworld.com/hydrogen/ (BMW's fleet of hydrogen-powered cars)
