They invite inventors to movie makers to apply for their fellowship at this link:

Why I made this thread?
Here's an email from them:

Hi Danang
Why TED? i find it suspicious that all of there early vid were 18 mins long. Like that was their thing.
 I don't watch them.

Mmmmmm, let me add that to my conspiracy notes.

"18 minute long videos are suspicious. Don't watch them!"

Good to know!

I'm not saying i think 18 min long vids are bad, just odd, all of their early vids were 18 minutes, and i thought they were atheists and anti this and that...

No offence Danang. I've not actually watched TED vids, so just my speculation.

But good on ya

What does the length of a video have to do with atheism?

TED = Technology, Entertainment, Design

What does the name Ted have to do with the program?

You could have looked that up yourself.

As well, where did you not only get the notion that Ted talks were atheist, but also where did you get the idea that all of them ran some mysterious time of 18:00 minutes?

Here is a set of the first Ted Talks back in 2006. Look at the time durations...They vary 16-25 minutes. In other words, where do you come up with this stuff?

Oh great, i knew it, theyve accessed my computer through the power lines and completely hijacked the thing...shit maybe my names not even faded mike...

That would certainly explain a lot of your posts... 

TED = Technology, Entertainment, Design

It should be TEDP

Mike mentioned 'atheism'.

Are there really atheists?

As to 18 minutes thing , I have no idea yet... But politics is in surplus everywhere nowadays.
The thing is,
Is it a good politics or bad politics??

As to 18 minutes thing , I have no idea yet...

Attention span.

Sorry guys, i just deleted my posts in this thread.

Sorry guys, i just deleted my posts in this thread.

All righty?

Yeah, thx

Ted's going to be pissed off. 

different story if they change "TED" to be "TEDP". 👌

I used to watch some ted talkes. Nearly all of them are trash, either because the people giving the talks have an ego bigger than the brain or the person is actually a great player in his/her field, but he/she knows the audience is retarded thus he/she has to make the talk on a niveau that the audience can understand, which then makes the talk shitty again.

Honestly, ted talks are mostly for teens that think they are smarter than they actually are.

The same answer: To make TED (more) awesome:
Change the name "TED" with "TEDP" AKA "Technology, Entertainment, Design, PHEW" 👌
