4/12/18 Welcome to the future
As far as I am concerned, the future is now. Nothing is as mind boggling as a leader who blogs and allows himself accessibility by a free radical like me.
That is the value information age brought to the table, the closing of the rift between two polarities of thoughts. This is to me an excellent example of the shift from a rigid bureaucratic thinking to a linear kind of thought.
The relationship benefits both parties. The leader can customize his message to a certain target group and the audience can respond to him in a personalized manner. The key here is open mindedness, Without an open mind, there will be blind spots.
In the information age, the X factor is the easy access to information. Suddenly with the introduction of Google, whatever question that we have can be answered instantaneously. There is no limit to what we can achieve.
Nothing can stop an idea whose time has come. If just one idea (electricity for example) can change the way we live, imagine several key ideas being *[being] exposed to us every day for the rest of our lives. We no longer as Carl Sagan put it, live in a Demons Haunted World. All of us should be enlightened. No longer will challenging the status quo be considered blasphemous. The thing *[thing] that acts as our holy grail now is no longer hearsay but the rise of human intelligence – the State of Knowing.
* External intervention.
In a sense we are stepping back to the primordial age with the coming of information explosion. During those times the elders scoured their surroundings and through trial and error distilled the wisdom to pass to the next generation through actions and words of mouth. With internet, the process is the same. The major difference now however, the mode information is passed down is through graphic and text.
It is my personal belief that all information should be preserved, absurd or likewise. Let the seeker be the final arbiter. What we don’t want though is distorted information. Therefore the provider of the information should exercise both personal freedom and social responsibility.
People like Google had been of extreme value. Thus, the information provider through the sieving process will rise among the mediocre alternatives through the process of natural selection. Nevertheless information is a GIGO process; either it is Garbage In Garbage Out or Good In Good Out.
You Chedet had quantum leaped from the dark ages into enlightenment with a strike of a needle. Not bad for a 93 years old who still uses pen and paper to take note LOL.
You take good care of yourself.
