The world’s shrinking, in a manner of speaking.
If we look at the trend of end-products of technological advancement, we could almost say that the size that matters is small.
And it’s not only our gadgets that are getting smaller. The way we live, the way we work, the way we can do business is being refined to a point where we can do more with less effort. Doing small things can lead to big results.
Much in the same way how small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) as well as private individuals are doing what the big firms and multinational companies can do, to draw on the talents and skills of the human resources from any corner of the planet through the Internet.
