Every once and a while we like to present something other than books to help stoke your imagination. Our video presentation of philosopher Dan Dennett is a great example.
Today we want to introduce you to The World Wide Telescope. It’s a revolutionary technology being given to everyone this spring. Both these videos come from a truly incredible website called Ted.com You should make it a regular stop. (The video is a little dark at the begining, let it continue as it improves quite a bit- also the intro is quite loud)
Great video, thanks for sharing; it reminds me to take my nose out of a book once and a while and look up.
Wow, that is amazing. I am excited to see more about this, I love star gazing. 😀
Very, very interesting! And TED site is great. I remember that I saw a presentation there about a new game which involves the universe as well, so that children (of all ages like the 2nd speaker said) could learn much about the universe.

It’s nice to see some interesting sites here that are on subjects other than books. Keeping the old noggin chugging away is great for any small business owner. I hope to open my bookstore soon Thanks for all the great posts.
