At the 3:00 minute mark of this talk, from the Open Education Conference in May 2009, Gardner Campbell relates trying to introduce faculty to the potential of connected world by comparing to giving out bags of gold.

”It’s as if day after day, I say, ‘I have a bag of gold, would you like a bag of gold?’ and they say, ‘How do you have time for bags of gold?’”

This is a classic example of squandered potential. Thanks Gardner.
