Massimo Banzi: How Arduino is open-sourcing imagination

http://www.ted.com Massimo Banzi helped invent the Arduino, a tiny, easy-to-use open-source microcontroller that’s inspired thousands of people around the world to make the coolest things they can imagine — from toys to satellite gear. Because, as he says, “You don’t need anyone’s permission to make something great.”

    The order is reversed. People are open sourcing more because? of a change of consciousness that involves less greed and less evil. Governments (and some major corporations) will attempt to expand or at least keep their power. Maybe they will install a 1000% DIY-tax ;-(
