Bill Gates Asks Two Big Questions

Friday, February 6th, 2009

Two days ago, I sent out several tweets about the incredible talk that Bill Gates gave here at TED. In an absolutely genius marketing move, he released a few mosquitos into the audience, to not only make his talk memorable, but to spread the message that these questions are important to the future of humanity. He also admits to being an optimist and says “I believe any problem can be solved.” Above all, I’m an optimist as well, and so to hear that from him, was really cool.

This is the first talk available online from TED this year, and one of the most important to think deeply about. So, I’ve shared it with you here. Enjoy.
