57. we are in the “knee of the curve” We are witnessing the exponential shift – years since adoption

58. we are in the “knee of the curve” size of machines shrinking processing power increasing patents increasing Internet hosts increasing technical knowledge increasing cost of mips decreasing Internet bandwidth increasing wireless price performance increasing mass use of inventions increasing investment in education increasing global poverty decreasing

59. now

60. connectivity 24/7 delivering content driven by users creating impactful immersion

61. very inexpensively
