    The video and the song are great (for those wondering, the song is "Right here, right now" by British artist "Fatboy Slim").

  • Very impressive. I don't need to see the bibliography for the facts. I've been to China and they will soon eat our lunch. We will then pay them to feed us.

    Tell that to Joe the Plumber.

    What does it all mean? In many respects, not as much as we might first think. Corporations typically footdrag on advancement to get a larger Return On Investment for their research efforts. Think CD technology... how long did that cash cow run? For many years you could buy a CD for $15 or a cassette tape for $7 - A CD being a single stamped piece of aluminum glued between two pieces of plastic and a cassette having many moving parts made with a diverse set of raw materials. Which do you think was cheaper to make and how was that reflected in the price?

    We see this now with PC and video card performance. We see the slightest increase in performance marketed as a cutting edge improvement. The result is millions retire their 2.8GHz PC to buy a 3.1GHz PC, thinking they are making advances.

    It's a simple cash cow model Intel, AMD, MS, and Apple haved used against consumers for 25 years... because it works in a consumer driven market. It provides a huge ROI on modest research efforts.

    I hope the current economic crisis snaps us out of the consumer driven model, perhaps to move toward a value-based market model - where we buy things not because we love to buy things but because we believe the exchange of our money for their products represents something of some real value to us. Currently, most consumers are driven to... consume for the sake of consumption. We are so used to it, we don't even take offense that "they" call us consumers, instead of customers. What does *that* all mean?

    Another thought. Too many informations implies too much noise. It will become even more difficult catching real signals, real informations, real understanding, from all this noise. It will be very difficult for a human being to process so much information everyday. Technology grows quite exponential, but human brain can't evolve so fast.

    Maybe it means that we need to start filtering what we get from the outside world before we crash our brains for overflow?
    food for thought.

    Amazing how dated this video has become since it was made. It doesn't have Twitter or smartphones addressed, which has really taken over the public consciousness in the last 2 years

    Impressive and mind blowing! Things are getting more and more complex and outdated. Looks people will lag the technological development, so hard to keep up with it. Excellent choice of music, carefully chosen that goes well with all the evolution stuff..

    Pretty impressive - and especially education and the political class are in some way pretty resistant towards that approaching changes. Fear? Uncertainty? Losing big bucks?

    What may it be? What are the structures that it needs to cope with that massive change? Where the leverage points to make it happen?

    Great inspiration for outlandish thinking (and acting :-))
