You guys, I've found it! I've found the blog post that is the most awful (unintentional) indictment of TED's awful pseud groupthink!

strictlyalright:

My favorite part is “random connections drive innovation”, the most TED-like (read: meaningless) phrase ever thought by a human being ever, but the blog post I’ve linked is filled with gems like the aforementioned. Never has words meant so little. Actually, I’m pretty sure I don’t know what words mean anymore after reading the post.

““The question is how we can access the collective intelligence in the room as well as create a space for that shared interest and intelligence to continue to engage.” Huh? You have a room! The “space” has been created?

    • #that line about the 'four basic ingredients' is also priceless
