Tom Friedman "World is Flat"

This speech made it clear to me about how much and how quickly the world is changing. I found his UPS story very interesting. It is amazing that if you need a computer fixed it almost never reaches the place where it was actually made. Also, I think it's amazing how many jobs are outsourced to distant places. This is true because it is very rare to find a tag that says "Made in USA." I found Tom Friedman very easy to follow while speaking because he seemed very knowledgable and confident about his topic. He made his speech a whole bunch of small stories which kept the audience engaged.
