You may remember we hosted TED@Cannes last month, and I’ve just been pinged by them to let me know a couple of the talks that were recorded there have been edited and are now online.

Hans Rosling on population growth.

“The world's population will grow to 9 billion over the next 50 years -- and only by raising the living standards of the poorest can we check population growth. This is the paradoxical answer that Hans Rosling unveils at TED@Cannes using colorful new data display technology (you'll see).”

Clay Shirky on how cognitive surplus will change the world.

“Clay Shirky looks at "cognitive surplus" -- the shared, online work we do with our spare brain cycles. While we're busy editing Wikipedia, posting to Ushahidi (and yes, making LOLcats), we're building a better, more cooperative world.”

Don’t forget to check out our “behind the scenes” look at TED in Cannes video too!

Cheers
