You suddenly find yourself on-stage for your own TED Talk.

With no prior planning, what's a topic you can discuss for 40 minutes?

I couldn't.  I doubt I could do 10 minutes!   I'm not a great talker.

Doug's TED talk in House of Lies would spring to mind

Not exactly TED topics and they would need some jazzy titles but I think I could manage

Poultry Welfare
Poultry Slaughter
Halal Slaughter
ITIL
EU Food Labelling Regs
Books of Dean Koontz/Raymond Feist

Past that I would be struggling - no I wouldn't invite me to a Dinner party either.

Shit post Nakor, such a clown.

Think I'd discuss how the internet has changed the world so dramatically, in almost every way, especially, for example, politics, & the excessive power of Social Media such as Twitter & Facebook.

How the internet is policed would be included, given that for the most part the internet seems to work outside of the law, especially as to libel. At present, anyone seems to be able to say anything on the internet, which breaches many laws as we know them.  

It changed the world, & did so very very quickly.

Punctuation.

Does it have to have the potential to get more than five views and two of those being relatives?

If so, why sport matters.
