Video: Did You Know?
Technology is moving at an ever increasing rate of development, and just a few years from now, we'll be exponentially more informed and equipped than we were in all of human history.
While this isn't a news post in the traditional sense, I just wanted to share with everyone I stumbled into on YouTube. Created by by Karl Fisch, modified by Scott McLeo and Jeff Brenman. The video is simply called Did You Know, and goes through several interesting facts about technology and society today. For example, China will soon become the number one English speaking country in the world, and while it took the radio 38 years to reach a market audience of 50 million, it only took the iPod 3 years.
Also, the total number of text messages sent everyday now, exceeds the total population of planet Earth.
Check out the video. There are some pretty interesting facts.
Hi alap -
I did mention in the article it wasn't news. But I thought it was a pretty cool short video to share with people. You may have seen it, but I'm pretty sure not everyone has. And that version of the video was made last year.
Nothing wrong with sharing information with those who may not have seen it I reckon.

Anyone know why the financial system is failing?
In 1995, 121 slight upward trends were viewed by analysts who then exaggerated them and assumed the trend would continue forever.
In 2005, 5137 trends were exaggerated.
By 2015 that number WILL grow to 4,000,017
So much for the bleeding edge of information...

That I just wasted 5 min 16 sec of my life and I can't get it back?
....
Video is complete speculation; drivel. Almost like a Move on dot org video or something.
Did you know???
That you've just wasted 30 seconds of my life posting garbage on an otherwise useful homepage? Just don't watch it if you don't like it dude! If it was so much a waste of time, why did you watch all 5 minutes of it anyway? And waste additional time comming back to complain about wasting time? Damn! see now you made me waste another 30 seconds of mine!
we do live in exponential times, nowadays it takes nothing to start a flame war
this video is amazing! I love it will definitely share with all my buddies
Apparently they missed they stats of ppl who don't read articles properly and start making ignoramus comments. Those amount of comments must equal the earth's population.
