Technology that Matters
I have written already two times about the XO laptop, an extremely important initiative of the One Laptop Per Child Foundation. But I think you should all know that the Give One Get One action has started again through Amazon. Just a case of very proper timing, I guess, with Christmas and a New Year coming. But also in a period of downturn that gets many people to rethink their position in a world that is dominated just a bit too much by greet, short-term success and shallowness. And if that is not even enough reason, the XO happens to be quite a juicy, contemporary device, with its solid state storage, mesh networking and open source software. This is technology that matters. Technology that can change the world. Have a look at it.
