Learning from eBay's CEO Devin Wenig

The Internet, or maybe more specifically the World Wide Web, is incredible! 

Seriously.

I know we've become jaded over the years. Between e-commerce ads following us everywhere, the pressures of social media, increased screen time and so much more, we've become cynical, demanding and unimpressed. 

Forget all of that and think about the fact that EVERYTHING is at our fingertips. That's what lead me to the great Oxford Union series of talks from brilliant thinkers from around the world. 

In the video below you can listen to current eBay CEO Devin Wenig discuss all sorts, including how positive the internet and technology can be for us moving forward into the future. 

I know we're surrounded by fake news, echo-chambers and trolls but moving forward we have the choice; it can be good or bad depending on what we want.
