Why isn't TED's website organized as such.



What a great resource.

I wonder why steve jobs hasn't spoken at ted? most other great tech leaders appear to have held court there.


Very nice.

I'd like to have them in order of presentation. Still, just the links are nice to have. This will save me some time.


If you go to the actual link (http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pjGlYH-8AK8ffDa6o2bYl...), you can sort them 3 ways (Date, Event Name and Speaker).


Sure, I saw that. Problem is that date is actually date the video was published, not the event date.


here is the feed http://feeds2.feedburner.com/tedtalks_video and shell script to download it in background http://ossguy.com/?p=26


TED Talks should have ratings too, and we should be able to sort by rating.


They would all be 5 stars. -Ted.


Agreed! All of them are great, and thats why they are invited to TED!


Er I thought they did have some popularity measure.


Is there a query string parameter that I can use to get this as a .csv? When I copy/paste it into Open Office, I get lots of extra blank rows inserted in there.


Your wish is my command: http://friendpaste.com/Zl54q3hYb9t42A3r73LrI

Scroll to the bottom and hit "raw format" for easiest copy/paste.


Edit -> Paste Special -> Unformatted Text and then picking the columns yourself usually works for me in Calc.


I think this is the sort of thing Google Squared wishes it was. I'd love to see it. What other datasets/search results are there like this?
