Keeping my promise to Ben

During a Skype conference with Ben Lyon, executive director of FrontlineSMS: Credit, I said I'd write about what I was seeing in today's twenty something generation. Keep in mind, ladies and gentlemen, that Mr Lyon is but 22 and a half years old or thereabouts.

I wish I'd had the opportunities, technologies and shifting ideologies happen back when I was in my early twenties in the late 1980's, when my idealistic yearnings of making a better world to live in were stifled in silence, today I can share it with you.

Whether it was Steven B Daniels who conceived of A Better World by Design, with a little help from the VC partners, or Ben Lyon who initiated  what perhaps we'd all been sitting around and waiting  for someone to make ha5ppen, these kids are changing their world. For the better, thank you ver much, you Oldsters.

I think we should be listening to what they may have to say...
