DIGITAL MARKETING NEWS

SMK’s app of the week: TED

When it comes down to it, everything we do begins with an idea. Sometimes our own, sometimes from others.

Now the internet is wonderful for a great deal of things, and we think one of the best is TED.

Talk isn't cheap

TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) is a non-profit organisation dedicated to spreading ideas, predominantly in the form of talks (always 18 minutes or less).

Since beginning as a  conference in 1984, TED has attracted high-profile speakers from around the globe to share their thoughts on everything from science to the environment and social issues.

Now all that wisdom can be accessed through the TED app.  

Walk and talk

The free app works with iPhone, iPad and iPhone Touch to give users access to over 1000 TED talk videos from industry leaders.

Searching for what interests you is made easier by keyword searches, while you can create playlists and mark videos to watch when you're offline.

Talks are available in 90 languages, with subtitle options, and all video talks can be streamed in high or low res depending on your connectivity.

Get inspired

Our favourite part of the app is the “Inspire Me” feature.

This lets users select the subject they want to learn more about. Simply select a topic such as “contentment”, enter how long you want to listen to the talks, and the app will curate a playlist tailored to your time and taste.
