It’sinteresting to look at these forces in terms of Maslows hierarchy of needs. Most fundamental need is physiological 'FOOD'. Second is safety and third is love and belonging or 'CONNECTING' with people. The Acricultural Revolution took care of the FOOD-part. The Internet, the Web and Social Media is really firing up under the CONNECTING-part.
Great way to tell a story: Pictures instead of words! I like the intersection of the agricultural revolution. Here is another way to look at the forces behind SM. The industrial revolution allowed us to lift more than our body weight. The SM revolution allows us to stay connected with more people than just what our brain could muster.
