Posted

Yet another brilliant post by Kevin Kelly. As Kelly puts it, it’s about the  “ Noosphere, or MetaMan, or Hive Mind. We don’t have a good name for it yet.” It’s what I and others call the collective. The impossible is happening because we are getting better at thinking as one, to become something greater than the sum of the individual shared creations that the collective consists of.
