Collective Social Intelligence

Beschreibung

People are naturally social, and social relationships have sustained the ways we interrelate to start and then finish our greatest achievements. Today, the ways we use technology have created a virtual-world that is overloading us with so much information that the resulting behaviors are breaking many productive social relationships in the actual-world. The virtual-world very often results in out-of-proportion reactions to too much information and too much connectivity. There's nothing wrong with technology, but if we embrace Collective Social Intelligence (CSI), the technology will be put to better use because by necessity, our virtual-worlds will be cleaned up, mended and re-defined to put humans back onto a faster track of globally pioneering and progressing our place in the universe.
