And Now the Good News

TEDGlobal 2010: It's a Wrap

Six days after the curtains dropped on 2010’s TEDGlobal conference and I’m still sifting through the ideas heard and contacts made in Oxford. After a deep breathe, we now turn our attention to a special TED issue of design mind, one that will try to capture the spirit of the “And Now the Good News” theme, while also taking a deeper dive into some of the ideas we heard from the many interesting speakers.

Give us a couple of months, and then look for essays by Matt Ridley, Dimitar Sasselov, and Sheena Iyengar, visuals by David McCandless and Chris Wild, and Q&As and articles from some very special guests from inside and outside of the TED community — all wrapped up into a beautiful print package that will give readers a wider and deeper investigation into the idea that the news is not all bad.

Meanwhile, to get the full flavor of what happened in Oxford, check out the latest videos and blogs from last week at the TED blog.

Here are some other great resources for during-the-conference dispatches and wrap ups.

−    The Guardian newspaper's wrap-up article in their Technology section. 

−    TED speaker Ethan Zuckerman’s amazingly thorough in-conference dispatches on his personal blog
