Today morning only I watched this wonderful video presentation from TED Talks.  It was fascinating and I thought I should share with everybody.  I do not want to say anything about it and prefer to let you watch for yourself and come to a conclusion. Please don’t miss it.

After watching the video, you may want to visit his portal.  For your convenience, I am providing the link:

subject: Join us at TEDIndia!

Dear Members of the TED Community,

We are thrilled to tell you about TEDIndia, the upcoming TED conference to be held in Mysore, India November 4-7, 2009.

About TEDIndia:

Under the theme “The Future Beckons,” TEDIndia will present three days of inspiring speakers from the worlds of technology, entertainment, design, science, business and the arts.

“At a time of huge economic uncertainty, one thing remains clear: There’s been an unmistakable shift of influence to the east,” says TED’s Curator Chris Anderson. “We wanted to examine the future from the vantage point of India, a country that’s re-inventing itself daily and whose influence is reshaping the world.”

Inspired speakers and game-changing ideas, evocative locations and transporting entertainment: TEDIndia offers a vision of the future that’s rich with invention, entrepreneurship, cross-disciplinary problem-solving, unexpected solutions and sensory delight. Hosted in a country that’s reinventing itself – and reshaping the world …

TEDIndia will be held at the incredible high-tech campus built by Infosys to train its thousands of engineering graduates, representing the heart of the Asian outsourcing industry. And while we have not yet announced the speaker program, it’s already shaping up to be an extraordinary line-up. Speakers will include India’s most promising innovators, from entrepreneurs to artists, storytellers to scientists. And about one third of the program will come from outside India. We’ll hear from celebrated global icons as well as undiscovered talent that’s due broader recognition.
