Browse talks

The app lets you browse through TED Talks by tags, themes, ratings, or languages. Unfortunately, it doesn't let you sort by specific event or date.

My Talks

The best thing about the TED app is that it lets you download talks for watching (or listening) while offline. If you're out of space on your device, you can also just bookmark talks for streaming at your convenience.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
