It costs $4,400 U.S. to attend TED and you have to apply. It brings together 1000 of the smartest, most talented, most inspiring thought-leaders - the real movers and shakers in every industry - for four days of the fresh and the important. It is invitation only.
Thanks to Kiwini Oe (Steve Nelson) of Clear Ink, you get to attend - right now and through tomorrow - in Second Life.
Last night they streamed the live presentations by Bill Clinton, photojournalist Jim Nachtwy, biologist E. O. Wilson and a performance by Paul Simon. Today the world-class speakers tackle Intelligent Design, Tales of Passion, Exploration and Awe, and Imagined Futures. There are at least a few speakers talking about subjects - and sharing ideas - you will not want to miss.
Kiwini tells me the streaming will also be available after the conference ends tomorrow. And, he will be doing a short presentation introducing Second Life on the TED main stage tomorrow between 11:15 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. tomorrow. That should be really surreal - seeing streaming video of Second Life while in Second Life.
Teleport to Allston at 165,100,25 and check it out and hear some of the most important ideas of our time. You can get more information about the conference at the TED website and blog and see the full conference schedule here.
This is someplace you will wish you could be in RL - but thanks to Clear Ink we have the next best thing.
