Seeing as how I had to look it up I'll assume others are wondering what TED means too

Acronym, Definition. TED, Technology, Education, Design.

"TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, and Design."

And what a wonderful idea it is. And so perfectly adapted to the internet.
