TED & Blog Inspiration

Straight from the source, here's the word on blogging via a great personal speech from Mena Trott who with her husband founded Six Apart. Six Apart has produced Moveable Type and Typepad among others and they've been credited with helping heft the 'social media' revolution. Her take on her own expertise is a great primer / background on how blogging and web 2.0 media is shifting everything. The two ideas, Influence of Blogs & Personal is Universal, are unique ideas to carry out into the world via blogging.

Her wrap up is spot on, "... think about blogs, think about what they are, think about what inspired them and then actually do it because it's something that's really going to change our lives."

And if you don't know TED where the speech is hosted (and related blog) it's a huge trove of technology driven ideas and inspiration. Definitely dig in.
