TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design.
It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds.
Since then its scope has become ever broader.  

TEDTalks began as a simple attempt to share what happens at TED with the world.
Under the moniker “ideas worth spreading,” talks were released online.
They rapidly attracted a global audience in the millions.
Indeed, the reaction was so enthusiastic that the entire TED website has been reengineered around TEDTalks,
with the goal of giving everyone on-demand access to the world’s most inspiring voices.
