ื•ืื– ื ืขืฉืชื™ ื“ื™ ืœื—ื•ืฆื” , ื•ืืชื ื™ื•ื“ืขื™ื,

ืœื ื™ื“ืขืชื™ ืฉื›ืจื™ืก ื™ื•ืฉื‘ ืขืœ ื”ื‘ืžื”,

ื•ื–ื” ืขื•ื“ ื™ื•ืชืจ ืžื•ืจื˜ ืขืฆื‘ื™ื.

ื”ืชื—ืœืชื™ ืœื—ืฉื•ื‘ ืขืœ ืื‘ื™ ื•ืกื‘ื™
00:56
and my great-grandfather,
12

2063
ื•ืื‘ื™-ืกื‘ื™,
00:58
and I realized
13

ื•ื”ื‘ื ืชื™
00:59
that I had all of these Teds going through my bloodstream --

01:04
(Laughter)
15

1398
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
01:05
that I had to consider this "my element."

ืชื—ืฉื™ื‘ื• ืืช ื–ื” ื›ื™ืกื•ื“ ืฉืœื™.
01:09
So, who am I?
17
69000
2377
ืื– -- ืื–, ืžื™ ืื ื™?
01:11
Chris kind of mentioned I started a company with my husband.

ืื ื”ื‘ื˜ืชื ื‘ืกืคืจ,
01:19
you saw this ...
21

1584
ืจืื™ืชื ืืช ื–ื”,
01:20
(Laughter)
22

01:25

ื•ื‘ื’ืœืœ ืฉืจืฆื™ืชื™ ืœื”ืจืฉื™ื ืืช ื›ื•ืœื›ื ืขื ืฉืงื•ืคื™ื•ืช,

ืขืฉื™ืชื™ ื’ืจืฃ ืฉื–ื–,
01:36

ื•ื–ื” ืžื“ืข, ื–ื” ื’ื ื˜ื™ืงื”.
01:48
This is my grandmother, and this is where I get this mouth.

(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
01:53
So --
35
113183
1256
ืื–,
01:55
I'm a blogger, which, probably, to a lot of you, means different things.
36
115163
4056
ืื ื™ ื‘ืœื•ื’ืจื™ืช, ืฉื–ื”, ื›ื ืจืื” ืœื”ืจื‘ื” ืžื›ื,
ืื•ืžืจ ื“ื‘ืจื™ื ืฉื•ื ื™ื.
01:59
You may have heard about the Kryptonite lock brouhaha,

02:03
where a blogger talked about how you hack
38
123319
1984
02:05
or break into a Kryptonite lock using a ballpoint pen,
39
125327
2649
ืื• ืคื•ืจืฆื™ื ืœืชื•ืš, ืžื ืขื•ืœ ืงืจื™ืคื˜ื•ื ื™ื™ื˜ ืขื ืขื˜ ื›ื“ื•ืจื™,

02:09
Kryptonite had to adjust the lock,
41
129373
1966
02:11
and they had to address it to avoid too many customer concerns.
42
131363

1975
ืื•ืœื™ ืฉืžืขืชื ืขืœ ืจืืช'ืจื’ื™ื™ื˜,
02:16
which was basically the result of bloggers

realizing that the "th" in 111
45
140130
4020
ื‘111
02:24
is not typeset on an old typewriter;

02:27
it's on Word.
47
147371
1276
02:28
Bloggers exposed this,
48
148671
1713
ืื–, ื‘ืœื•ื’ืจื™ื ื—ืฉืคื• ืืช ื–ื”,
02:30
or they worked hard to expose this.

2568
ืื• ืขื‘ื“ื• ืงืฉื” ื›ื“ื™ ืœื—ืฉื•ืฃ ืืช ื–ื”.

ืืœื” ื“ื•ื’ืžืื•ืช ื ืคืœืื•ืช. ื”ืื ืฉื™ื ื”ืืœื” ืžื’ื™ืขื™ื ืœืืœืคื™ื,
02:50
These people are reaching thousands,

1846
ืื ืœื ืžืœื™ื•ื ื™ื ืฉืœ ืงื•ืจืื™ื,

It's this visual cue that is so important to what we do.

14:30
Now I've kind of evolved it, so I have this look.
329

If you look at my driver's license, I have the same look,

3279
ื•ื–ื” -- ื–ื” -- ื“ื‘ืจ ื“ื™ ืžื˜ืจื™ื“
14:38

ืื‘ืœ ื–ื” ืžืฉื”ื• ืฉื”ื•ื ืžืžืฉ ื—ืฉื•ื‘.

I'll probably get choked up, because I tend to when I talk about this.

So, this woman, her name was Emma,

And she was a beta tester, so she was there right when we opened --

ืื– ื”ื™ื ื”ื™ื™ืชื” ืฉื ืžืžืฉ ื›ืฉืคืชื—ื ื• --

And she wrote about her life dealing with cancer.

She was writing and writing, and we all started reading it,

ื•ื”ื™ื ื›ืชื‘ื” ื•ื›ืชื‘ื” ื•ื›ืชื‘ื”,

15:11
because we had so few blogs on the service,
343
911160
2067
15:13
we could keep track of everyone.
344
913251
1611
ื™ื›ื•ืœื ื• ืœืขืงื•ื‘ ืื—ืจื™ ื›ื•ืœื.
15:14
And she was writing one day,

ื•ื”ื™ื ื›ืชื‘ื” ื™ื•ื ืื—ื“, ื•ืืชื ื™ื•ื“ืขื™ื,
15:16
and then she disappeared for a little bit.

2254
ืื– ื”ื™ื ื ืขืœืžื” ืœื–ืžืŸ ืžืกื•ื™ื™ื,

And her sister came on, and she said that Emma had passed away.

15:23
And all of our support staff who had talked to her were really emotional,

923598

ืฉื“ื™ื‘ืจื• ืื™ืชื” ื”ื™ื• -- ืžืื•ื“ ืืžื•ืฆื™ื•ื ืœื™ื™ื,

ื•ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื™ื•ื ืงืฉื” ื‘ื—ื‘ืจื”.
15:31
And this was one of those instances where I realized

ื•ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” --
ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ืื—ื“ ืžื”ืจื’ืขื™ื ืฉื”ื‘ื ืชื™

how much blogging affects our relationship,

ื•ืžืฉื˜ื—ื™ื ืืช ื”ืขื•ืœื ื”ื–ื”.

939418
1684
ืฉื”ืืฉื” ื”ื–ื• ื‘ืื ื’ืœื™ื”,
15:41

355
944387
3262
ืžื” ื”ื™ื ืขืฉืชื”.
15:47
But the big thing that really influenced us was,

3529
ืื‘ืœ ื”ื“ื‘ืจ ื”ื’ื“ื•ืœ ืฉื‘ืืžืช ื”ืฉืคื™ืข ืขืœื™ื ื• ื”ื™ื”,

her sister wrote to me, and she said --

1404
ื•ื”ื™ื ื›ืชื‘ื” ืืช ื”ื‘ืœื•ื’ ื”ื–ื”,
15:54
that writing her blog during the last couple of months of her life

ืฉื›ืชื™ื‘ืช ื”ื‘ืœื•ื’ ื‘ืžืฉืš ื—ื•ื“ืฉื™ ื—ื™ื™ื” ื”ืื—ืจื•ื ื™ื

was probably the best thing that had happened to her,

And that was amazing,

966346
1168
ื•ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ืžื“ื”ื™ื. ืœื“ืขืช
16:07
to be able to know that we had empowered that,

ืฉืืคืฉืจื ื• ืืช ื–ื”, ื•ืฉื›ืชื™ื‘ืช ื‘ืœื•ื’

ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื“ื‘ืจ ืžื“ื”ื™ื.
