TED is one of the few television shows left that has some sort of educational and moral value in the wasteland of popular television of the age in which we live.

Oxytocin, a.ka. the moral molecule is the chemical that's released in the brain as a result of empathy with and trust in other human beings, strangers included. Dr Zak maintains that oxytocin can be released through amongst other things, hugs, random acts of kindness and wait for it... the use of social media.
