TEDxWaterloo

I spent the day today at a TED conference in Kitchener-Waterloo. If you never heard of TED, check out their homepage with links to fascinating short talks on an amazing array of subjects.

There were some excellent speakers here in Waterloo: Izzeldin Abuelaish, a doctor from Gaza who spoke of forgiveness after losing his daughters to an Israeli bomb; Karen Morris, an innovation specialist and lawyer who spoke about Love; and Taylor Jones, who started a website called "Dear Photograph", one of the top-rated sites on the web, almost by accident. Good talks and good food with good friends: all in all a great day!
Yours truly with event co-ordinator Kevin Thomason, Lawrence McNaught and Jessica Rodela
