Anything is possible in the future as we know it. Technology is expanding at such a rapid pace that anything is possible in the future. Literally you can start an international business overnight with nothing more then a telephone and internet connection.

The "World Is Truly Flat", and things are moving at the speed of light. In the book "The World Is Flat" by Thomas Friedman, he talks about the international shipping company UPS. Most people think of UPS is just a shipping company, yet they do so much more then move boxes. They are a distribution hub for enterprises and other small businesses. They are actually at the center of operations in a lot of modern companies.

Meaning no longer does UPS just ship products and parts. They actually assemble the parts for their clients and ship the finish product to the consumer. They are truly "6 inches" apart from the consumer. They do this with great savings for their client.

In this new world nothing is what it seems. The people who controls these hubs and networks are kings. Google is another great example. People think that Google is a web company, existing primary online. When really Google is one of the biggest network, and hardware company out there. Google's infrastructure, it's vast array of computer farms, is what separates them from their competitors. It's why their company is so valuable, and not easily duplicated.

In this new "Technological Revolution", you have to think outside of the box. Never have you had so many resources at your disposal. You can outsource anything, and probably should. Like my brother tells me, the great companies of tomorrow are those that know what to outsource and what to do themselves.
