Another quickie - just wanted to draw your attention to the 2009 TED lecture series. My sister introduced me to TED and I'm rapidly becoming addicted to this site...
Basically it's an website that provides high quality videos of lectures by some pretty amazing people on topics near and dear to their hearts - so you get to hear Dan Gilbert explain what makes people happy, Richard Dawkins on militant atheism or people like Hans Rosling with some pretty amazing and fairly friendly statistics on poverty ect.
Think Stephen Fry, Bill Gates, Gordon Brown and others all have a lecture up there. Definately worth checking out on a lazy afternoon.

A British family falls on hard times, as it struggles to afford five
holidays. But was the UK Telegraph's yarn accurate?

Ok. Stephen Fry doesn't have a lecture. He wrote a blog about the latest series - hence the name popping into my head.
