AMANDA PALMER: THE ART OF ASKING

As a cultural icon of the 21st century, she needs no introduction.  Here's Amanda Palmer with a TED Talk which she later turned into a book.  Fascinating stuff.

  1. Don't know who Palmer is, don't know what a TED talk is, so when you say no introduction needed, you're talking to some other audience. I didn't know there were "cultural icon"s of the 21 century. Oh, and the coffee is bitter this morning. Bah.

  3. Richard, Amanda Palmer is a performance artist, married to Neil Gaiman more so now. TED (Technology, Entertainment, and Design) talks started as a one-off seminar in 1984 and have spread throughout North America, Europe and Asia. Speakers are given a maximum of 18 minutes and talks are live streamed. Almost 2000 talks are now available online.

    Stay away from the bitter coffee, my friend.
