"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

Technology does not drive change

«It’s my belief that technology does not drive change.
Technology merely enables changes.
It 
creates options and opportunities
that as 
individuals and as communities and as entire cultures
we choose to exploit.
And it’s our 
response to the technologies that drive change.
In 
other words, first we invent our technologies
and 
then we use our technologies to reinvent ourselves».
Paul Saffo, technology forecaster
