Some of the panelists of the latest Graphika Manila held last Saturday have uploaded their talks on their respective Facebook and Tumblr pages (well at least the Manila based designers have done so).  27+20 Design Boutique have uploaded theirs with additional points that they weren't able to discuss, and Dan Matutina has some videos of his techniques up on his tumblr page. Really nice links especially for those who weren't able to attend, and something additional for those who were able to do so. 

Come to think of it, this wouldn't have been possible in the past few years, say, in the year 2000 when people were not privy to sharing their stuff on line. Really amazing how social networking and the Internet has already become prevalent and changed a lot of things. Nowadays you basically have speakers uploading videos and just sharing knowledge online, and it just doesn't stop with design. You now have people uploading their stuff ranging from the mundane to the technical, from the satirical to the inspirational.

By far though, the Ultimate Online Repository of knowledge must be TED.com. They're not just your ordinary how-to-talks but ideas discussed by the world's greatest minds. Like this lecture by Ken Robertson on why today's educational methodologies might not make sense anymore, and how it can be changed, or Tim Brown's discussion on the real point of Design, and how designers should think. You'll not just learn from these lectures, it will also compel you to think.
