The folks at TED are busy getting video from previous years up online while working on the video from this years conference.  They’re doing a great job and just the other day posted this video which introduced me to David Eggers.  I felt absolutely inspired by his talk at TED and by him as a person.  I hope you enjoy and are inspire by him and his wish as much as I was.  He created 826 Valencia in San Fransisco which has become a great success tutoring kids 1 on 1 between the ages 6-18.  In the 25 minute talk that he gives you will not once feel its a waste of your time.[TEDTALKS DAVEEGGERS-2008-2_high.flv]TED linkOnce upon a school - This is the site that was set up for people to participate in David Eggers TED wish.  Here you can read stories of success and even submit your own if you participate in his wish.
