Folks, it’s time for a new group project. Last year, I asked you to tell us about your Life-ChangÂing Books, and we pulled togethÂer an excelÂlent list that many readÂers have enjoyed. Now we want to know: where do you go for intelÂliÂgent video? If you list the sites that you like best — TED, Fora.TV, YouTube EDU, SnagÂFilms, AcaÂdÂeÂmÂic Earth, etc. — we’ll pull togethÂer a big list and present it next week. My hope is that the list will include some well-known names and some less well-known names. If there’s a site where you find intelÂliÂgent video, we want want to know about, and your felÂlow readÂers will thank you for it. Feel free to email me your picks at
ma**@op*********.com
, or write them in the comÂments below. Thanks all!

And about innoÂvaÂtion and othÂer trendy topÂics:
http://www.balzac.tv
I rememÂber the first time I got excitÂed about intelÂliÂgent video. It was with my disÂcovÂery of iTunes U a while ago. My curÂrent favorites:
Fora.tv
ted.com
academicearth.org
I like the addiÂtion of docÂuÂmenÂtaries to Hulu.com as well :)
Though I enjoy TED, Fora, and AcaÂdÂeÂmÂic Earth, my favorite, my daiÂly go-to video site, is Bloggingheads.tv
Ted talks for sure!
TED talks! I use them all the time for ESL classÂes.
Hi,
Great sugÂgesÂtions! Thanks for putting this togethÂer.
I would like to put forÂward PsyÂchÂlecÂtures: http://www.psychlectures.com
Although this webÂsite doesÂn’t host video, it brings togethÂer all sorts of media (includÂing coursÂes) on the topÂic of psyÂcholÂoÂgy, neuÂroÂscience, and psyÂchiÂaÂtry, for those interÂestÂed.
Hi
aside from youtube and archive.org, here are 2 sites I like browsÂing through when lookÂing for videos:
http://www.europafilmtreasures.eu/
http://www.dailymotion.com/us
ClauÂdia
I see that Ted.com and
EuropaFilmTreasures.eu are are listÂed … those are two of my favs.
AnothÂer that I highÂly recÂomÂmend is FolkÂstreams, a colÂlecÂtion of short films and mini-docÂuÂmenÂtaries on AmerÂiÂcan roots culÂture, includÂing music, folkaÂrt and traÂdiÂtionÂal cusÂtoms:
http://www.folkstreams.net
These are some of my faves — lookÂing forÂward to seeÂing the comÂpiled list.

DefÂiÂniteÂly TED. They keep adding great feaÂtures, more talks, more lanÂguages, etc. Their priÂmaÂry misÂsion is now to make sure as many peoÂple have access to these amazÂing talks. $6000 to watch them live, free with a 3 month delay. It is the site I share with friends the most.
I’m always amazed by the variÂety of eduÂcaÂtionÂal and humorÂous videos in the PhiÂlosÂoÂphy MonÂkey blog:
http://berto-meister.blogspot.com/
This site is a bit out of date and some of the links are broÂken, but it’s still a great comÂpiÂlaÂtion of online docÂuÂmenÂtaries:
http://www.bodocus.com/
http://thesciencenetwork.org/programs/beyond-belief-science-religion-reason-and-survival
http://www.documentary-log.com/
I go here for some good old docÂuÂmenÂtary watchÂing.
I’m surÂprised SnagÂfilms hasÂn’t been menÂtioned in the comÂments — its a fanÂtasÂtic site with hunÂdreds of docÂuÂmenÂtaries. The best part about the site is you can give back to the charÂiÂtaÂble founÂdaÂtions behind each one of the docÂuÂmenÂtaries.
It’s gotÂta be Snagfilms.com. SnagÂfilms proÂvides hunÂdreds of free docÂuÂmenÂtaries withÂout any memÂberÂship or subÂscripÂtion. These imporÂtant and eduÂcaÂtionÂal indeÂpenÂdent films are aweÂsome!
linktv.org!!!
docÂuÂmenÂtaries, world news (dubbed from midÂdle eastÂern counÂtries), world music, culÂture, etc.
One stop shop.
I also love TED talks. They are so interÂestÂing, unusuÂal, and thought proÂvokÂing.
WithÂout a doubt, I go to SnagÂFilms. So many fabÂuÂlous options, too litÂtle time!
Here are some more…

I’m always lookÂing for sugÂgesÂtions or ways to build it up.
1. The Long Now FounÂdaÂtion
http://www.longnow.org/
2. Talks at google
http://www.youtube.com/user/AtGoogleTalks
and TED ofcourse!
I secÂond the PBS videos, specifÂiÂcalÂly the FrontÂline and NOVA series. Also secÂond mitÂworld. iTunes U is defÂiÂniteÂly worth checkÂing out as well.
If you don’t mind readÂing:
At FSU I can also get access to virÂtuÂalÂly any jourÂnal online, and trust me there are a plethoÂra of jourÂnals on any subÂject you can think of. I’m sure most uniÂverÂsiÂties have the same, and if you don’t go to a uniÂverÂsiÂty you should try a pubÂlic library.
