In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
The professor has an interesting way of communicating and that kept me hooked to the video. I am surprised how it has not hit a million views. Would love to share this video.
A genius doesn't try to change the world of linguistics, he/she's gotta analyse it in order to understand the flow it's taking :) Loved it.
Fantastic talk...love TEDx. And yes a kindle or any ebook just does not work for me. I need those pages. I need that smell.
Absolutely we must keep the books moving. We will become a completely totalitarian state if we do not.
Best Ted talk ever.
Brilliant and compelling lecture. I whish Dr. Lerer had taken the time to examine moveable type in more detail. One correction, though: the painting of the old woman reading the Bible (see 11:10) is not by Rembrandt but by Gerrit Dou c 1630.
Abrasive at first, you think, but slowly you realize, hot damn, this guy ROCKS!
LOVED IT!
Awesome professor-nuff said.

This had sooo much influence on my life. (BTW I have seen 20 seconds)
I love that he addresses the sleeper in the front row!
I could hear him talk forever
Scintillating interpretation in terms of historic groundbreaking things at super insightful at Reading and writing is standing beyond the u comparable presentation at incredible way with invaluable gesture.
Have you just discovered a thesaurus?
This professor is awesome! Would you give him a poke pls, and anyone would like to make a mess of this?
Best.

As good orator as he is, his tone is extremely neurotic and frightening, as if he is trying to scare or punish the listeners.
No he's not. That is his style of presenting.
Eli Ilkova Did you even pay attention? Maybe you were that sleeping person in the front row...Think about it.
She is right, his tone is not good. Respect peoples opinions without trying to derogate them just because they don't agree with you. Maybe you Lulu B. were sleeping when someone tried to teach you some manners
有感染力的talk…but not sure what's the message..
So, it's good that this generation has horrible grammar and spelling? It's good that there are increasingly divergent tiers in modern communication? How about educating this generation to write properly. Or is that saved for the elite?
We all are Gods elite,the ones jesus christ died for,let's read his mind,bible.
Pretty rich of him to talk all this at us instead of writing it down to be honest, practice what you preach...

This is probably the least enjoyable TED talk I have ever been assigned. His stage presence is more annoying than sandpaper on sunburn, and his ideas are contrived and pointless. And he's extremely rude, calling out someone who fell asleep because he's so boring.
What a disturbing voice
