Ask Chris Anderson (TED Curator) Anything!

Chris Anderson became the curator of TED Conferences in 2002 and hasn't looked back since. Now's your chance to Ask him anything! (comments on this blog will not be considered)

Few people (myself included) even knew about TED back then -- few did -- but Chris has aimed to change that in the last eight years. Now hundreds of thousands of TED Talks are viewed every day and TEDx events spring up in cities around the world, hosted by TEDsters who've taken the model for sharing ideas back to their hometowns.

And Chris has actively encouraged this growth every step of the way, even reaching out to the reddit community to form partnerships like this one to ask anything of TED speakers (Sir Ken Robinson, Hans Rosling, and Karen Armstrong to name a few).

Now it's your turn to ask Chris Anderson anything. You'll be able to find him in around the /r/TED reddit and elsewhere around reddit under the name TEDChris. In fact, he agreed to this interview in a reddit thread this past December.

The top 10 questions on this thread as of January 22nd at noon Eastern will be asked.
