We have all heard the statement that a weeks worth of the New York Times contains more information than an entire lifetime in the 18th Century. 

This presentation is full of those kinds of stats that drive home not just the amount of information, and change, but the rapid increase in the pace of change that we are experiencing. 

 The best quote for me, is that today’s education systems are preparing students for jobs that do no exist.

Enjoy.
