The convergence is changing the world and you can't go back to the old one.
"The third convergence — I said there were three — is that right when the world was flattened, what accidentally happened was that 3 billion people who were out of the game walked onto the playing field, from India, China, and the former Soviet empire. When do they walk onto the playing field, friends? Just when it has been flattened. Just when they can plug and play, connect and collaborate, more directly with your kids and mine than ever before in the history of the planet."
