Worthwhile


Today I saw an interview with Nicholas Negroponte, founder and chairman of the One Laptop per Child non-profit association. Mr. Negroponte mentioned that they wanted to load 100 different digital books onto each laptop they gave to a child. If they gave a village with 100 children a laptop computer each that village would have 10,000 books. Imagine the potiential value of this resource. What a great use of technology.
