【正文】 (applause)(掌聲)篇6：ted演講稿I was one of the only kids in college who had a reason to go to the . bo_ at the end of the day, and that was mainly because my mother has never believed in , in Facebook, in te_ting or cell phones in general. And so while other kids were BBMing their parents, I was literally waiting by the mailbo_ to get a letter from home to see how the weekend had gone, which was a little frustrating when Grandma was in the hospital, but I was just looking for some sort of scribble, some unkempt cursive from my mother.And so when I moved to New York City after college and got pletely suckerpunched in the face by depression, I did the only thing I could think of at the time. I wrote those same kinds of letters that my mother had written me for strangers, and tucked them all throughout the city, dozens and dozens of them. I left them everywhere, in cafes and in libraries, at the ., everywhere. I blogged about those letters and the days when they were necessary, and I posed a kind of crazy promise to the Internet: that if you asked me for a handwritten letter, I would write you one, no questions asked. Overnight, my inbo_ morphed into this harbor of heartbreak a single mother in Sacramento, a girl being bullied in rural Kansas, all asking me, a 22yearold girl who barely even knew her own coffee order, to write them a love letter and give them a reason to wait by the mailbo_.Well, today I fuel a global organization that is fueled by those trips to the mailbo_, fueled by the ways in which we can harness social media like never before to write and mail strangers letters when they need them most, but most of all, fueled by crates of mail like this one, my trusty mail crate, filled with the scriptings of ordinary people, strangers writing letters to other strangers not because they39。(laughter)(笑聲)so here’s my question to you: what are you waiting for? i guarantee you the ne_t 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not, so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot for the ne_t 30 days.所以我給大家提的問題是：大家還在等什么呀?我保準(zhǔn)大家在未來的30天定會(huì)經(jīng)歷你喜歡或者不喜歡的事，那么為什么不考慮一些你常想做的嘗試并在未來30天里試試給自己一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)。但是，它們就不太可能堅(jiān)持做下來。這和又大又瘋狂的具有挑戰(zhàn)性的事情無關(guān)。”(laughter)(笑聲)so here’s one last thing i’d like to mention. i learned that when i made small, sustainable changes, things i could keep doing, they were more likely to stick. there’s nothing wrong with big, crazy challenges. in fact, they’re a ton of fun. but they’re less likely to stick. when i gave up sugar for 30 days, day 31 looked like this.我這兒想提的最后一件事?；羝媛也槐亻_口說，“我是一個(gè)電腦科學(xué)家。它看上去太可怕了。那么我寫的書會(huì)是下一部偉大的美國(guó)小說嗎?不是的。順便說一下，秘密在于除非在一天里你已經(jīng)寫完了1667個(gè)字，要不你就甭想睡覺。這結(jié)果就是，你所要去做的事就是每天寫1667個(gè)字要寫一個(gè)月。i also figured out that if you really want something badly enough, you can do anything for 30 days. have you ever wanted to write a novel? every november, tens of thousands of people try to write their own 50,000 word novel from scratch in 30 days. it turns out, all you have to do is write 1,667 words a day for a month. so i did. by the way, the secret is not to go to sleep until you’ve written your words for the day. you might be sleepdeprived, but you’ll finish your novel. now is my book the ne_t great american novel? no. i wrote it in a month. it’s awful. but for the rest of my life, if i meet john hodgman at a ted party, i don’t have to say, “i’m a puter scientist.” no, no, if i want to i can say, “i’m a novelist.”我也認(rèn)識(shí)到如果你真想一些槽糕透頂?shù)氖拢憧梢栽?0天里做這些事。甚至去年，我完成了在非洲最高山峰乞力馬扎羅山的遠(yuǎn)足。我也注意到隨著我開始做更多的，更難的30天里具有挑戰(zhàn)性的事時(shí)，我自信心也增強(qiáng)了。挑戰(zhàn)的一部分是要一個(gè)月內(nèi)每天我要去拍攝一張照片。there’s a few things i learned while doing these 30day challenges. the first was, instead of the months flying by, forgotten, the time was much more memorable. this was part of a challenge i did to take a picture everyday for a month. and i remember e_actly where i was and what i was doing that day. i also noticed that as i started to do more and harder 30day challenges, my selfconfidence grew. i went from deskdwelling puter nerd to the kind of guy who bikes to work — for fun. even last year, i ended up hiking up mt. kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in africa. i would never have been that adventurous before i started my 30day challenges.當(dāng)我在30天做這些挑戰(zhàn)性事情時(shí)，我學(xué)到以下一些事。考慮下，你常想在你生命中做的一些事情 接下來30天嘗試做這些。斯普爾洛克的腳步，嘗試做新事情30天。謝謝。最后我想告訴你們的是——你可以在網(wǎng)絡(luò)上做得很好。ve got to be okay to just lose control. thank you.如果你真的決定試試，那么請(qǐng)真摯、誠(chéng)實(shí)、坦率地去做。and if you do, be genuine about it. be honest. be up front. and one of the great lessons that greenpeace actually learned was that it39。如今，互聯(lián)網(wǎng)有各種各樣的發(fā)布工具，你只需要幾分鐘就可以成為內(nèi)容的提供者。只要我們有一個(gè)瀏覽器，不論你的財(cái)富幾何，你都可以去到想瀏覽的頁面。因?yàn)榛ヂ?lián)網(wǎng)提供的是一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)均等平臺(tái)。and this is kind of how the internet works. this is that great big secret. because the internet provides this level playing field. your link is just as good as your link, which is just as good as my link. as long as we have a browser, anyone can get to any website no matter how big a budget you have.這就是互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的運(yùn)作方式。網(wǎng)友們這么做并非是完全的利他主義。當(dāng)然，他們中的一小部分或許是。re talking about a lot of people who were just really interested and really caught up in this great meme, and in fact someone from greenpeace came back on the site and thanked reddit for its participation. but this wasn39。演講內(nèi)容節(jié)選(ale_ ohanian 從社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)的角度分析這個(gè)事件)and actually, redditors in the internet munity were happy to participate, but they weren39。“綠色和平”組織希望起低調(diào)奢華有內(nèi)涵的名字，但經(jīng)過 reddit 的宣傳和推動(dòng)，票數(shù)最多的卻是非常不高大上的“濺水先生”這個(gè)名字。演講的開頭，ale_is ohanian 介紹了“濺水先生”的故事?！盀R水先生”的故事是臉書時(shí)代米姆(小編注：根據(jù)《牛津英語詞典》，meme被定義為：“文化的基本單位，通過非遺傳的方式，特別是模仿而得到傳遞。s rise to web stardom. the lesson of mister splashy pants is a shooin classic for mememakers and marketers in the facebook age.這段有趣的4分鐘演講，來自 reddit 網(wǎng)站創(chuàng)始人 ale_is ohanian。e dance with me. e, dance with me. e, dance with me.39。d like to leave you with a poem by a fourteenthcentury persian poet named hafiz that my friend, jacques dembois told me about, and the poem is called “the god who only knows four words”: “every child has known god, not the god of names, not the god of don39。t have hope, it doesn39。s how they went about teaching them and treat
