This video<\/a> is off a smart guy talking to MIT crowd about globalization. The speech is titled after the book he wrote – “The World Is Flat<\/a>“. This is the most interesting speech on the subject of globalization that I’ve ever heard. It’s very widely scoped too – it touches on everything from Berlin wall and Netscape browser to 9\/11 and open source. I’ll be ordering the book shortly too.<\/p>\n

The speech is in Real Media format and is about one hour long, so you might want to install Real Player and find a large piece of time, if you plan on watching it.<\/p>\n

After I saw it, I was somewhat tired. The speech is very thought provoking and it made my brains work hard. Packing it all into my head felt like dealing with a wardrobe of clothes and a tiny bag. Things were falling out of it all the time and I couldn’t manage the zipper to close.<\/p>\n

Rarely I feel like this.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
