TED Talks: Wikipedia's origins and a creature feature.

I found this OUTSTANDING web site called TED Talks. I found this site thanks to a fellow classmate's blog: Kristen's eLearning Blog. Her post, "Facilitating Change in Education" first introduced me to TED Talks and I've been hooked even since.

I found this video from the founder of Wikipedia, Jimmy Whales. He talks about how he started Wikipedea and what goes into editing an entry. It made me look at the site differently. I still wouldn't use it as a reference but I do trust the information a little more after listening to this video.




This next video I'm adding not so much for practical educational purposes but because I like it and you might as well.




There might be some practical use for education, but it's hard for me to see. What do you think?
