Ask HN: TED like sites/videos?
Are there any other sites like ted.com? Not looking for talks on any specific field, just a general collection of talks like TED on various topics, and hopefully not too technical.

But mine are about 1 hour each.
You can search through our full video collection here (1764 collected so far): http://lanyrd.com/video/
You can also browse by topic - for example, here are our videos about JavaScript:
http://lanyrd.com/topics/javascript/video/
And here's our collection of Ignite videos:
http://lanyrd.com/topics/ignite/video/
You can even view videos by particular speakers - for example, here's our page for John Resig:

Let us know what you think. We're plan to revamp our video listing pages pretty soon.
You should. It looks very "spammy" right now and quite confusing. Other than that, good job.
Currently 1000+ videos
The videos are shorter, but the site tries to link you to similarly interesting conversations, and hopefully expose you to something you weren't aware of. It's also growing rapidly, and will have a lot more video up in the next couple of months!
Talks by Sal Khan, the Gregory Brothers (they show off their a cappella chops) and others.
If ur into audio, try http://said.fm/. The content is like a cross between TED and Fora.TV. Brilliant for on the go listening.
On average, better than TED, in my opinion, although quality is of course variable.
