The first ever TEDIndia conference is streaming live tomorrow (well, in a few hours, to be precise), and you can get all of the details on their site: http://conferences.ted.com/TEDIndia/

There are some amazing folks speaking at the event - more in fact than I can tell you about, as the reality is that I'm just not as familiar with many of those they have from around India. Some notables that you might know already, though, who are speaking tomorrow include Hans Rosling, who has wowed TED before with his completely nontradtional statistical visualizations, and Tony Hsieh, the renown (at least over in this part of the world) CEO of Zappos, the online shoe company that has built its brand around innovative customer service.

In addition to watching, it's worth your while to check out the TEDIndia fellows, whose project range from Samasource's computer based work for the poor to CellBazaar's marketplace for mobile users.
