Sep 22 Its a Flat World after all

The concept of a flat world is one that I have been experiencing for years and never knew it. I never realized how the presence of more less expensive toys growing up was the direct result of Globalization. This era of globalization was reflected in class today in three forms.
Version 1.0, version 2.o, and finally Globalization 3.0.
It was very surprising to see the relationship of these versions time frames to political events such as the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the end of Communism. This has created a new mind frame for the business world, and for the consumer. People can now have access to things they want when they want them, and if where they are buying does not satisfy their needs, they will go elsewhere.
