Bigthink.com is a new online presence that is increasingly becoming known as the "smart Youtube". Bigthink.com brings experts, celebrities and the public into a conversation about the big questions that face us today. On it you will find the likes of Moby talking about why he is avegan, John Legend discussing Oprah's influence, Senetor Ted Kennedy speaking about democracy and education along side everyday people who choose to join the conversation. Bigthink developers believe that one of the biggest hurdles that they face is the shrinking attention spans of the average person on the net. In our YouTube/MSN/instant noodle world, how can people enter into a deep discussion about such things as poverty, love or the environment if people possess attention spans that last as long as TV commercials? View one expert's discussion on a topic that interests you and then respond to that video on your blog. Finally, talk about the concept of Bigthink.com and its attempt to bring intelligent and interesting conversation to the internet.
