Samuel Scott- Why the World is Flat

Friedman believed that the world is flat of the motion that competitive playing field between industrial and emerging market countries is leveling, and because entrepreneurs as well as companies, both large and small are a part of a global supply chain. The significant flattener that was recorded in the book that struck me was the Netscape company. Netscape was a big fact in the flatting of the world. Netscape brought the internet alive with the browser. They developed the internet so that people could use it more easier then every before. The second thing that Netscape did was commercialize a set of open transmissions protocols so that no company could own the internet. This act of Netscape changed the world to where now the world is so much more advanced. It all started with Netscape thats why i believe that this is one of the most significant flatteners.
