Very engaging and thought provoking perspectives on knowledge and the potential for getting smarter. Your observations that knowledge is social and has always been social is so true but our conventional education system has totally ignored that! Intuitively it makes sense. We all know we are stronger when we pull together and become the sum of our parts. Thank you for sharing ideas on how and why the internet holds a huge power to connect us all, to “link” us to more and more in depth information.

I’m glad you found it useful. I thought it was an incredibly insightful keynote. I was lucky enough to be there to document it.
