There's something Zen about "The paradox of choice" :) Very interesting talk if you are into psychology and the "less mantra".

Jeff Bezos: After the gold rush, there's innovation ahead

amazon.com founder and CEO talks about dot.com boom, gold rush and innovation.

Interesting talk by a really smart man. Jeff also puts the Internet into a historical perspective - which I kind of like.
