Our Hometown: Kansas City As You Have Never Seen It

We are proud to be based in Kansas City, Missouri.
It is truly an overlooked gem of a city that is gaining a lot of momentum as an arts, culture and innovation destination.
Below is a time lapse video in HD that gives you a nice feel for what "America's Creative Crossroads" is all about.

We will share more on our hometown, but for now, enjoy this series of photos that are truly worth millions of words. 

The Best 16:10 of Your Day: Unintended Consequences

Every one of us had made a decision that has had unintended consequences later in life. Now magnify that idea and consider inventions, ideas and ideals that impacted people on a global scale. That is what Edward Tenner, a historian challenges us with in this TED Talk.

In this age of hyper technology and innovation, we should stop and consider the possible unintended consequences of many of the tools that we use daily. There is much written about the near term consequences of cell phones, social media, the Internet, Google and more. But what about the changes that these innovations and devices will have on humanity in 50 years, 500 years or even 5000 years? Technology futurists seldom think in distant time frames.

Mr. Tenner does a great job of getting us out of this near-term history concept and start thinking much larger. Always a good thing for any of us who work on entrepreneurship and ideas.

Enjoy...
