I have been seeing a ton of twittering going on about my name. But this Twittering, has nothing to do with me, it has to do with my nemesis giving an outstanding and extremely thought-provoking speech at the TED conference.
His speech was named The real crisis? We stopped being wise and it is a must watch, about 20 minutes long. Here it is:
Barry Schwartz, the psychologist is extremely well known, mostly for his book named The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less. People talk about this book every day, guaranteed. But now, he may have outdone his book with his TED speech.
Why is he my nemesis? Not because he has about 35 years on me, but because he outranks me for my own name barry schwartz in Google. I guess if I changed my title tag to Barry Schwartz on any of those sites, I would do better, but I won't be doing that.
Plus, he owns the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Schwartz URL at Wikipedia, where I own en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Schwartz_(technologist).
Anyway, this Barry Schwartz is way smarter than yours truly. Watch the video and you will see why.

This is hilarious!Barry was my psychology advisor in college- although I can't say I recommend his book. Give yourself a few more years- I bet you'll catch him.
