TED - Technology, Entertainment, Design

Inspiration and ideas from world's leading thinkers and doers.

Some weeks ago I ran into a website that I keep on returning to every now and then for inspiration and ideas.

From their website:

"The annual conference now brings together the world's most fascinating thinkers and doers, who are challenged to give the talk of their lives (in 18 minutes).

This site makes the best talks and performances from TED available to the public, for free. More than 100 talks from our archive are now available, with more added each week. These videos are released under a Creative Commons license, so they can be freely shared and reposted.

Our mission: Spreading ideas. "

How good is good enough?

How do you define "a good idea"?

How do you actually rate ideas to be good or bad?

If the implementation of an idea fails can the idea still be rated as good?

To me it seems that excellent ideas usually are rated excellent only afterwards, when they are already successfully implemented. The same ideas were just good or average before the implementation.

What is the primary function of an idea? Let's say it is to inspire and to show a direction. This definition would at least explain some of the above, wouldn't it?
