If you are one of those on the presenting circuit you are often looking for little tidbits of information that will wow your audience. Or, if you are someone trying to sell in to technology stubborn companies then this video will provide you plenty of fodder. It's longer than you may have time for (about 4 minutes) but even just watch a minute and you may be impressed by the research done. I found it very interesting.

Who knows how accurate it is but a lot of these statistics I have heard before.

Things like:
- The top ten in-demand jobs in 2008 did not exist in 2004
- The US labour department estimates by age 38 todays learners will have had 10-14 jobs
- If MySpace was a country it would be the 5th largest in the world
- 31 Billion searches on Google every month, in 2006 this was 2.7 Billion, who used to answer these questions?
- Technical information is doubling every 2 years, which for some students means by their third year of study the information from first year could be out of date
- China will soon be the number one English speaking country in the world
