In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

“you guys wanna be in a vine video?”

[@gulfstream12]

Passion is everything. If you love what you do, the money will come. My dream was aviation. There was no plan, I just knew I wanted to fly. Now I'm flying corporate jets for a fortune 500 company, and have the time to go back to video, my first love. Follow your passion. Great job, Zach! You solved the equation early!

"So take the tools, take your ideas, and create something that will inspire the world."

the sky is the limit, creativity is the secret

[@josefafuchs6973]

Wow. This blew my mind. First I thought that the internet is completely ruining our life, but after this i have a different look at it, what the internet can do. Im a hobbywriter for myself and now that I think about, it's scary. People can read what im writing everywhere. And that Im chatting with people from Indonasia, Japan, ... its amazing! This really makes you think. Thanks Zach for being such a cool guy and thank you for giving me inspiration. ( And sry for all the mistakes in my comment, Im just a 13 years old student from Germany ^-^)

[@philipwapano8496]

I am Zach's fan and one of the things that's best of him is that he is a good speaker
