“Language started in a cultural system learned
through social interaction as a tool to
communicate”

“How - Why - When and Where
Language might have emerged,
during the course of human evolution,
know one really knows!”

Let’s Start From The Beginning
The Last Few Decades Years

Language Without BOARDERS
“No Translations Needed”

Challenging the Status Quo
Before we could not reach out to anyone on the planet, missing the opportunity to have a collective
marketplaces, causing a disconnect. Know cultures have an open source, and collective effort never before
seen in the world. We are challenging the status quo, building things, creating things, connecting with each
other, self-organizing around important issues, and yes, changing the world little bit by little bit.
Changed by Exposure to Diversity
New social media has brought people from different cultures together in the “global village.” During
intercultural adaptation, people use social media to learn about their host countries, establish and maintain
relationships, and stay informed with events in their home countries.

Learn More from Each Other
Social media links people around the world regardless of differences and geographical
boundaries. According to Chen and Zhang (2010), “The compression of time and space,
due to the convergence of new media and globalization, has shrunk the world into a much
smaller interactive field.”
Crowd Sourced Wisdom
We share our knowledge, wisdom and experiences. Quora is a place where you can ask any
question in the world, and expect a reasonable answer.
Creativity and Inspiration is Unleashed
We share our creative ideas and inspirations. Pinterest has redeﬁned the digital portfolio/
catalog.

Truth is Exposed
We still haunt Twitter waiting for a cause or idea to support. Retweets are our weapon in an
effort to expose information and transform thinking. It’s still an incredibly powerful tool, as its
signal can not be easily stopped (following censorship laws or not). ‘Can’t stop the signal!’
We are More Authentic
People in the social media space are ﬁnally talking more about authenticity, which might help
minimize some of the junkier parts of our lovely information city.
Anyone can Contribute
We acknowledge that everyone has something to contribute, as long as you’re nice about it.

What We Still Need 2 Work On
The structural argument is especially compelling when you compare the high number of minorities
using social media with the depressingly low number of Internet start-ups founded by African
Americans (1 percent), American Indians (1 percent) and Other Races (7 percent). By comparison,
whites account for 87 percent of venture-capital-funded Internet start-ups. Only Asian Americans
come anywhere close to competing at 12 percent.

NOT THE END
Social media have become increasingly popular components of our everyday lives in today’s
globalizing society. They provide a context where people across the world can communicate,
exchange messages, share knowledge, and interact with each other regardless of the distance
that separates them.
That in our hands we have a tool that could allow a total transformation of our world, by ﬁrst
transforming our values through visceral experiences and real-time sharing of information.
We are having conversations in unparalleled ways with unparalleled access to the people and
forces who can help create change. We are also increasingly choosing the information we
choose to expose ourselves to, just by using this far-reaching Internet voice.
We are in an era of VOTE with a CLICK, and that’s some real power.
