24/7/365 we are all working. And all this has happened in the twinkling of an eye. First, the falling walls, the opening of Windows, the digitization of content, and the spreading of the Internet browser seamlessly conected people with people as never before.

While the dynamic force in globalization 1.0 was countries globalizing and the dynamic force in globalization 2.0 was companies globalizing, the dynamic force in globaliztion 3.0- the thing that gives it its unique character-is the newfound power for individuals to collaborate and compete globally. And the lever that is enabling individuals and groups to go global so easily and so seamlessly is not horsepower, and not hardward, but software-all sorts of new applications-in conjunction with the creation of a global fiber-optic network that has made us all next-door neighbors.

You'd better good at the touchy-feely service stuff, because anything that can be digitized can be outsourced to either the smartest or the cheapest porducer or both. Everyone has to focus on what exactly is their value-add.(higher-value-added)

Goods are traded, but services are consumed and produced in the same place. And you can't export a haircut. But we are coming close to exporting appointment part.

What is vital is to be honest with people about what we are doing and why and not sugarcoat the message.

Change is hard. Change is hardest on those caught by surprise. Change is hardest on those who have difficulty changing too. But change is natural. change is not new. Change is important. The current debate about off-shoring is dangerously hot. But the debate about work going to India, China and Mexico is actually no different from the debate once held about submarine leaving New London or shoe work leaving Massachusetts or texile work leaving North Carolina.

You say you want a revolution? Well, the real information revolution is about beging.
From top-down structures into more horizontal and collaborative ones.
What is going on today is a much broader, much more profound phenomenon.
There are certain pivot points or watersheds in history that are greater than others because the changes they produced were so sweeping, multifaceted, and hard to predict at the time.

If the prospect of this flattening-and all of the pressures, dislocations, and opportunities accompanying it- causes you unease about the future, you are neither alone or wrong.

The speed of change is simply overwhelming them. and that is why the great challenge for our time will be to absorb these changes in ways that do not overwhelm people but also do not leave them behind. None of this will be easy. But this is our task. It is inevitable and unavoidable. It's the ambition of this book to offer a framework for how to think about it and manage it to our maximum benefit.

Communism was a great system for making people equally poor. In fact, there was no better system in the world for that than communism. Capitalism made people unequally rich.

Strengthening those below and weakening those above.

Turning ones gun sights on somebody. This in turn set off an explosion in demand for all things digital and sparked the Internet boom.

Package tracking and tracing system. Take our future in our own hands.

Open-source movement. bottom up/ top down. Go toe-to-toe with...

People will change their habits quickly when they have a strong reason to do so.
