Kaiton Williams is a Ph.D. student in Cornell's Information Science program and a senior engineer at Microsoft. He's also an occasional photographer, sporadic tweeter, forever failed blogger, and frequent flyer. He has been an instructor, a web designer, and a software developer for Goldman Sachs and sees his graduate study as a confluence of all these threads and more. Kaiton wants your computer to help you to be happy and engaged.

Kaiton Williams explained how human-technology interaction in a Jamaican context offers many opportunities for national development and export.

About TEDx
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x=independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.
