TED is a nonprofit devoted to "Ideas worth spreading."

The website has a bunch of ~20 minute free talks on all sorts of topics. As a current medical student, I have a bias towards science topics.

Some of my favorites include:

VS Ramachandran on your mind.
Brian Greene on string theory.
Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity.
Dan Gilbert asks, why are we happy?
Hans Rosling shows the best stats you've ever seen.
Jill Bolte Taylor's stroke of insight.
Malcolm Gladwell on spaghetti sauce.
Dan Pink on the surprising science of motivation.
