Charles Leadbeater: The rise of the amateur professional

A couple of years ago, I read an article in Wired talking about this wonderful, almost secretive conference around topics such as Technology or Education. At the time, I couldn't find more details about the conference, so I forgot about it... until I came across some videos on YouTube referencing TED talks.

That same conference again - TED | Technology Education Design.

Only this time, there is a rich, official website about it. A real gold mine of stimulating talks to watch and listen to.

I will post here links to the ones that I particularly liked.... starting with this talk about amateurs professionals and how creativity is rarely the fruit of individual, isolated labor but more often an evolutionary process of collaborations.
