Great Presentation on Positive Psychology and Happiness

During my recent searches I have stumbled upon some lectures by Tal Ben Shahar, a psychology professor from Harvard, who represents a movement called "Positive Psychology" and human happiness in general. Besides the general interestingness of the topic itself, I mean, who wouldn't want to be happy, these lectures are good because they are both scientific and very well presented.

As you know, I treasure great presentations and presenters and this is by all means a great example of such. So whether you want to be happier or just improve your presentation skills, enjoy!

Live well and then, well... leave

Sad moment. Randy Paush, author of "The Last Lecture", has died. What he did was so powerful and touching. And very hard to deal with. Frankly, the best presentation I have seen in my life. Check this link to digg, for the summary.
