Ben Hammersley speaks at Bloggforum

One of the most interesting people at Bloggforum 3 was Ben Hammersley, who talked about the responsibility we, as bloggers, have for shaping the future. Going back through history some 5 000 years, he showed us how civilizations have risen and fallen, how people have re-invented the wheel, invented new technology etc only to fall back into the mud and live in huts.
Ben Hammersley thinks that we are at a breaking point right now, and that we have an opportunity to break that circle and evolve. Having said that, and having listed eight points that he believes are the ideas that are changing society, and why they are fought by the "men in suits" - the people in power - he pointed out the responsibility that we, as bloggers, have for shaping the future.
