Description: Explorations of urban life in greater Victoria
Posted under
I was excited to see that Victoria has been playing host to a TEDx event for the past couple of years, learning about it unexpectedly when I found out my next door neighbour spoke at the event last year . The schedule offered a cross section of local and invited speakers, definitely something to check out.
Those familiar with the TED concept know that TED’s reach has extended into an extensive online presence – I watch TED talks online, have the app on my phone, and a large selection are available on Netflix as well. Given this I was a little curious about attending in person – I was hopeful that I would find the energy and dialogue that you really only get being in the room with colleagues. As it happened, it delivered handily. Plus, waffles!
