Vsauce is entertaining because he tailors his videos for an audience with ADD so it's hard to get bored or disinterested.

TED talks are just too long and most of the time the titles don't seem to coincide with the hour-long-tirades that the scientist people do.


Some of the ted speakers talk about stuff that have been discussed several times already.

But most of them are interesting.

I loving hate TED X. The stuff that TED X runs is often some really really fringe pseudo science bullstuff. I do love me a good TED talk though.
