So I read How Good Is Good. Besides being very well written it was very enlightening.
Summarizing what Stefan said basically goes like this....
The world in general has been designed, obviously by designers, but since most of us just follow the orders of our clients we fail to see the importance of design in the world and the affect that we have. If all of us just took time to make a list of priorities we apply to our designs and followed them, the world could be a better and more well designed place.
My favorite part was when he summed things up very simply. Like: Good Design + Bad Cause = Bad
I think Stefan is poplular because he puts things into context like that. He brings it up simply and makes it easy to understand.
Alot of the other videos I watched really had to do with designing our future, and the fact that we all play a very large roll in what happens to this world. Some person can have the best idea in the world but if it is not designed well, it wont reach the surface. So yeah I enjoyed these TED talks.
