VideoSift has nearly taken the place of the little bit of TV I watch.

I really enjoy it not just for the videos of funnies, but the educational, inspiring and odd ended worthwhile entertainment not readily found on Network TV. Bonus: for those who dont know, SIFT has it all sorted out already and doesnt require much thought to surf for varienty.

See, I have a 37 inch plasma with bunny ears ontop (by choice :P ), so all I get is no kidding, black and white fuzzy local network TV.

Anyways, here is a really nice 20 min lecture where the title explains it all. I find the lecture to be outstandinly true about life and thought provoking. I feel exactly what the man is talking about every day.

On the back of seeing that video a few weeks ago, I'm currently reading his book "The paradox of choice: Why more is less" and I'd wholeheartedly recommend it. Fascinating stuff and genuinely helpful to me in my own life.
