Hi, thought I’d quickly share another great TED talk with you.
Graham Hill discusses if having less stuff can make you more happy? A simple enough argument, in which he lays out 3 rules for editing your life.
The idea of ‘Stuff’ is something that plagues me a bit the older I get, I constantly think about giving away/recycling a significant amount of my things so I lead a life less cluttered and beholden to the crap that fills every corner of my house

This video is from a recent TED talk by rez Lieberman Aiden and Jean-Baptiste Michel as they show us how the NGram Viewer in Google Labs’ works and a few of the surprising things we can learn from 500 billion words. The NGram tool lets you search for words and ideas in a database of 5 million books from across centuries.
The search geek in me came out when I watched this video given keyphrase analysis is a key part of my working days
I have seen two TED talks by Ken Robinson, both really hit home with me. The education system is something that alot of people get very passionate about – and I am no different. I won’t try and lead you with my feelings on the subject, but I think these are both worth a watch, if no other reason than Sir Ken Robinson has an impeccable delivery and comic timing.
Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity

Recently been spending alot of time on the TED app. TED is something I was aware of for a long time, but had never got round to taking a look at, I’m so pleased I finally did! All because my brother sent me a video of jake shimabukuro playing Bohemian Rhapsody on a Uke. (man I love my ukulele).
Anyway, one of the first talks I watched was this one from Jeremy Gilley of Peace One Day. I hope you enjoy it.
