RE: [DDN] the refurbished computers timeline

2005-10-28 Thread Kevin Cronin
Phil:  I think you may be a bit behind schedule on the recycling stream for 
used computers.  Pentium 3s are routine donation from businesses now and 
Pentium 4s, given the flow of recycling, may be as soon as two years away, 
depending upon the economy, which impacts business decisions to replace 
computers. The flow of computers from businesses is large (and therefore 
more predictable), compared to that for schools and nonprofits and also 
leads, in that they replace existing computer systems faster.  Some sound 
advice for nonprofits looking for recycled computers to give to their 
constituencies or training program graduates would be to partner with 
nonprofit recyclers or commercial recyclers you know and trust (there are a 
lots of room for cheating and manipulation).  A nonprofit or school may even 
be able to partner to get some training to guide people in installations.  
Good, low-cost computers are available. God luck.

hi everyone -

  in my previous email today i shared info about the dell optiplex pentium
3 computer (600 MHz) that is selling for $99 from pcretro.com

   some of you will recognize this computer when it was used as a public
access web surfing station in schools, colleges and libraries in the
2000 to 2001 time frame.

   as i see it, the public access computers currently being used in
schools, colleges and libraries will be entering the refurbished
computer stream in 4 or 5 years. so in the 2009 and 2010 time frame, we
could be seeing pentium 4, 3 gigahertz, computers being sold for $99
from pcretro.com and similar outfits.

i'm a believer in supporting this refurbished computer market channel.
along with the donated, free computers also being redistributed in our
communities, these computers bring hope to many who have insufficient
access to technology.

the stronger this market channel develops, the lower the price for
each individual computer becomes.

  - phil

RE: [DDN] dumping old computers in the developing world

2005-10-28 Thread Chris Wilson
Hi Alfred,

 But new or old, computers will not be useful without software designed for
 applications relevant to the users. If they are illiterate, at any age, the
 first software they will need is that for developing literacy, in all its
 forms. Since each learner is unique, it should adapt to the individual
 person. It is currently useless to connect an illiterate person to the
 Internet, or to provide them with any existing computer tools.

Are you sure that computers will not be useful without training
software, to people who aren't literate? Would a library not be useful
to them even if it didn't contain children's books? Do you have
evidence?

My feeling is that people are not idiots, if you give them something
interesting they will learn how to use it. The Hole in the wall
project has shown this happening in practice
[http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/click_online/4365350.stm]. 

I would be extremely interested to hear more examples, positive or
negative, relating to literacy and computer literacy, as my organisation
is proposing a project for the ITU's Connect the World initiative which
relies on people being able to learn literacy from computers.

Cheers, Chris.

Re: [DDN] the refurbished computers timeline

Hello Phil,

You brought out great concepts we should support. 

To me the point is not it will cost ONLY $99 per PC.
It is more important we should not throw things away
where there are still so much life in a product. 

It all depends on WHY we need a PC. If it is just to
send emails, search the net, one does not need to have
a 'loaded' PC to begin with. How many of us really
need gigabits of storage space?

I am a strong believer in recycling. AND an even
stronger believer of NOT to dispose of things unless
is necessary. Therefore, perhaps we should teach
people not to throw away PC that they can still use to
start with??

[DDN] Nonprofit Software Survey

2005-10-28 Thread Teresa Crawford

Fellow list members -

I am working with Aspiration, a non profit, to conduct a Nonprofit 
Software Survey.  We are particularly interested in organizations 
working on the Digital Divide and particularly those outside the US.


Would be a great help if you could take our online survey.  I believe 
the results will be of use to the community and will help Aspiration 
create new tools to help organizations make more informed software 
choices.  Click here for the survey  
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=806691298474


See the announcement below for more on our project.

Thanks

Teresa

*

Have you...

...searched for software that helps your nonprofit organization do its job?
...been confused by the choices and how to choose the right software for 
your organization?
...been excited about a software solution or frustrated by a software 
tool in your public interest work?


Aspiration is conducting the first-ever 'Nonprofit Software Survey' of 
those making decisions about software solutions in and for nonprofits 
and NGOs around the world.


We want to learn how organizations and their technology support look for 
appropriate software for nonprofit work, evaluate software options, and 
decide which tools to use.


We need your help:

1. Fill it out! Fill out the Nonprofit Software Survey at 
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=806691298474. It'll take about 10-15 
minutes to complete the survey.


2. Pass it on! Pass on the Nonprofit Software Survey 
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=806691298474 to nonprofit and NGO 
staff and decision makers in your network.


We will make survey results widely available.  We will also give away a 
Treo 650 to a randomly selected respondent.


Thank you very much!

[DDN] The Dhaka Declaration

2005-10-28 Thread Andy Carvin

Hi everyone,

Here is the text of the so-called Dhaka Declaration issued after the 
Road to Tunis forum in Bangladesh earlier this week. -andy


http://www.mosict.gov.bd/html/Road2Tunis/dec.html

 DHAKA DECLARATION

We, the ICT stakeholders representing Governments, Private Sector, 
Academicia and the Civil Society, having come from six continents of the 
world,  assembled in Dhaka, Bangladesh from 23 to 25 October 2005 in an 
International Workshop entitled “Building an Information Society :  Road 
2 Tunis”, organized under the auspices of the  Ministry of Science and 
Information  Communication Technology, Government of Bangladesh in 
collaboration with UNDP Bangladesh and in association with World Summit 
Award (WSA), Austria;


 after extensive deliberations on the issues of e-governance, 
transparency  accountability, public and private sector partnership, 
internet governance, security vis-à-vis privacy, e-content  creativity, 
holistic ICT education  training for all, rural  universal ICT access, 
ICT4D leading to poverty alleviation and inclusion of women, children, 
the underprivileged  people with disabilities as well as the financing 
aspects of the solidarity fund;


 hereby declare our common desire and commitment to build a free 
multi-stakeholder, people-centric, inclusive and development-oriented 
knowledge based Information Society in the world at large :


emphasizing that a primary aim of the Information Society must be to 
provide basic information and communication technology (ICT) 
infrastructure to people to facilitate full utilization of ICT at all 
levels in society including the grass roots and hence enable the sharing 
of social and economic benefits by all by means of ubiquitous access to 
information networks, while preserving cultural diversity and heritage 
of humankind all over the world;


endorsing the important role that ICT can play in achieving the United 
Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which describe a 
fundamental set of principles and guidelines for combating poverty, 
hunger, disease, illiteracy, environmental degradation and gender 
inequality;


recognizing that the concept of a knowledge-based Information Society is 
one in which affordable access to information  communication technology 
through content in accessible language and formats can help people 
achieve their full potential, promote sustainable economic and social 
development, facilitate participatory decision-making processes in 
sustaining democracy and good governance and improving quality of life 
for all;


appreciating the efforts of the UN in convening the WSIS and of the ITU 
in implementing the summit in two phases, Geneva 2003 - Tunis 2005 and


committing ourselves to the Declared Principles and Plan of Action at 
the Geneva Phase of the Summit and leading to the Tunis Phase of WSIS.


 This Dhaka Declaration adopted at the conclusion of the  International 
Workshop entitled “Building an Information Society :  Road 2 Tunis” 
23-25 October 2005, Dhaka, Bangladesh and is submitted as input to the 
Second Phase of the WSIS in Tunis during 16-18 November 2005 through the 
Secretary General of the ITU and will also be disseminated through 
governments, civil society, private sector, NGOs and the media.


Dhaka 25 October 2005

The Workshop deliberations and views expressed shall be made available 
to all ICT stakeholders on the website http://www.mosict.gov.bd/road2tunis.

[DDN] Wikimaniacs, meet Boston. Boston, meet the Wikimaniacs.

2005-10-28 Thread Deborah Elizabeth Finn
(A version of this item - with live links - is also available at
http://blog.deborah.elizabeth.finn.com/blog/_archives/2005/10/26/1324659.html.)


Dear DDN Colleagues,

Here's some good news:  Boston's bid to host the 2006 Wikimania
conference has been accepted!

This means that next summer, folks from all over the world who care
about using the internet collaboratively to aggregate knowledge for
the public interest will be converging here in Massachusetts.

I see this as highly significant for our region's nonprofit and
philanthropic organizations.  As I have pointed out, perhaps with
tiresome repetitiveness, Boston has an impressive track record as a
hub of innovation, and yet a significant nonprofit digital divide
persists here. This is an opportunity for local nonprofit and
philanthropic organizations to cultivate some new ideas and
relationships that can help address this problem.
