Something for inquisitive minds and frequent travellers: TED Talks relaunches today with a brand new site and a lot more compelling content to stream or download to your ‘pod. It’s taken a while for my (TED) experiences to settle but there are two things that stood out from attending: that whatever your current horizon, you can think that much bigger; and the power of an individual and a simple message. Where to start? Try these two very different talks – Malcolm Gladwell’s What we can learn from spaghetti sauce and James Nachtwey accepting his TED Prize.

And what does this have to do with the photos of Lhasa Airport? The talks are my video content of choice for long haul journeys.
