technological innovation that will happen

If you liked this talk be sure to take notice of Kurzweil's thoughts on the increasing speed of (technological) innovation and the effects on humanity. video: www.ted.com/index.php/talks/view/id/38

Check the Dutch documentary (with plenty of English spoken - but understanding of Dutch and Indian language certainly helps...) about the introduction of the woodstove to the Indian market and an interview with economist C.K. Prahalad about the poor as a new market for multinationals
