I Want It That Way

This Backstreet Boys song seems to be an inspiration for many Youtube video makers. The video above has been watched more than 1 million times. The Backstreet Boys are looking for the group on the video to sing a duet!



My favorite is still the one from the Dormitory Boys (2005).

TED ideas worth spreading

TED is a phenomenon coming from the USA. It started in 1984 to bring together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design (TED!).
This video is one of my favorites. Taryn Simon displays her photographs of secret sites of the USA, and also tells about the obstacles she had to overcome in order to make the photographs.
Here is a direct link in case you have trouble playing the video.
