The world is gone flat: won`t we tap in?

I took a snap, only to return with some nice stuffs. I enjoyed I read after a long time, Thomas L Friedman`s book, winner financial times Goldman Sachs business book of the year award "The world is flat". This book is doing so much to me in my little way, it`s blowing my mind.

Some months back, I stumbled on a trick which allowed me try so much as regards playing with my hands, skill, knowledge and loads of information. I never knew what was on but I noticed my "kowope" friend (biz friend) mentioned and said "indeed, the world is flat". Then I queued up and fell in love with the writer, a researcher in the world of bit-ables & byte-ables. He said so much; words, tricks, ideas, solutions, quotes, mention it.

But all these never left me not to think of what this piece has done to me. My trick paid off, atleast I never had to pay the much more price that the ignorant pays! I added more stuff to me(thanks to bits&bytes), though at then I didn`t know what was coming on.

A while later I had the aperture to explore most stuffs right from my finger tips, I enjoyed romancing the networks, I enjoyed reading far more than I did in school, and I laid my hands on so many stuffs.

What I`m putting up as my main interest is: how can all these advantage which leverages this 21st century be turned into real adds in all fronts? As Nigerians, how do we get the asian breeze blow here too? How do we tap in?

It is as simple as being competent in strategic knowledge areas.
