From TED Blog: “The founder of 4chan, a controversial, uncensored online imageboard, describes its subculture, some of the Internet "memes" it has launched, and the incident in which its users managed a very public, precision hack of a mainstream media website. The talk raises questions about the power — and price — of anonymity.”

Open Culture informs about this video which has been synched with Philip Zimbardo’s lecture on Time Paradox.  Philip Zimbardo is a longtime Stanford psychology professor and well known for the famous Stanford Prison Experiment conducted in 1971. His book The Time Paradox(2008)  makes the intriguing case that each of us has a unique time personality. Some people tend to live hedonistically in the moment; others are fixated on past sorrows or future agendas. The book contains a quiz to determine your own time zone and suggestions for exploring its benefits and pitfalls—the goal being to help you make the most of the time you have.
