http://www.ted.com On the web, a new "Friend" may be just a click away, but true connection is harder to find and express. Ze Frank presents a medley of zany Internet toys that require deep participation -- and reward it with something more nourishing. You're invited, if you promise you'll share.

    Oh my god, I can not believe this is the same guy that makes the silly "True Facts" videos about animals. This guy is amazing. I'm so glad I accidentally found him

    Yeah yeah I read the New Yorker article, I believe there was a Harpers one as well. I still don't see how this talk is commercial.

    Woah. How about the Charlie Sheen looking character in the bottom left at 5:06.

    That's uncanny.
