This past year I traveled with my family to 25 countries across 6 continents. In each place we visited, we cooked, ate, shopped, attended school and spoke together about daily life. I talked to people about their technology use and learned how people really use our products around the world.
In this talk, I make bold claims like “No one uses Google in the developing world” and tell you why. Then I provide counterexamples, like why a Cambodian Tuk-Tuk driver streams YouTube to his customers in Siem Reap. I talk about what everyone was doing with their phones, and how infrastructure affected people’s lives in different places. I also talk about what it was like to travel at an insane pace with my family.
