5. Converge - kən-ˈvərj
• come together from different
directions so as eventually to meet
• (converge on/upon) come from
different directions and meet at (a
place)
• (of a number of things) gradually
change so as to become similar or
develop something in common
Oxford University Press

6. Paul Saffo and the 30 Year Rule – 1992 (TED2)
• The reason life feels so much more rapid today is
not that individual technologies are accelerating at
a faster rate or that things are happening more
quickly than they have in the past.
• What's actually occurring is that
more technologies are coming up at
the same time.
• It is the unexpected cross-impact of
maturing technologies that creates
the powerful acceleration that we all
feel.
• Cross-impacts are also the variables
that make new media forecasting so
difficult.
