We often find that we have to educate and involve everyone, that means our minority teachers and communities in the understanding of what can be with the use of computers. Community Groups source: http://www.edutopia.org/getstarted/community.php In the Digital Age, our best schools are tearing down the artificial boundary of the classroom walls, inviting -- depending on -- the community's active involvement in educating its children. Science centers, museums, hospitals, universities, business organizations, and parents' groups offer a diversity of vital resources and expertise to local schools. Beyond furthering the education of students, these school-community partnerships support the larger needs of children and families, thereby strengthening the entire community. International groups have to come to the table and be empowered with the knowledge of what might work. The UN Task Force has been working with this idea .. for some time.

[DDN] Who wants a broadcast fax server? Yes, you do.
Hi all, In partnership with Chicago's wonderful Linux group (FreeGeek Chicago: http://www.freegeekchicago.org/), we've decided it's about time we had a replicable, well-documented, broadcast fax solution. The idea is to get together and make use of FreeGeek's linux expertise to turn an average, low-end, nothing-fancy desktop computer we had lying around into a fax server capable of automatically sending high-volume faxes to addresses / numbers from pre-built databases. The immediate use that comes to mind is in advocacy / press releases / flyer distribution etc, but I'm sure most nonprofits could benefit from this kind of thing. And it'll be a great primer on the world of open source software and Linux, and the possibilities inherent in your old computer boxes. We're currently compiling a list of interested parties, and we expect to set a date to meet and build this thing in the near future. If there's enough interest from people / groups that won't be able to attend in the Chicago area, we can make extensive, newbie-friendly documentation available online soon afterwards. Anyone who'd like to be in on this, please email me and let me know. Please mention if you're in the Chicago area and would be interested in attending the build. You'll also get a tour of the Free Geek facility and hands-on experience of the work they're doing. Thanks, Dave. --- Dave A.

Who knows what the > > > culture might lose before members even became aware of the value of what > would be lost?! I don't understand this way of thinking, and I'm interested in the premises of it. Having just come back from a Culture and ICT conference (http://www.cardicis.org ) last week, I know what I don't know and part of what I don't know revolves around the fact that technology changes culture. Managing cultural change really isn't my business, it sounds a bit too 'Mein Kampf'ish... but understanding the cultural change is interesting, and teaches just as it learns. Rapid technological change, I believe, is a cultural change by definition - because culture is not separate from people, and people produce technology (though we do have technology being created by technology now through evolutionary algorithms). Any rapid change in a culture comes at a cost, and that cost is based on a value of the change as perceived by the culture. If the value is too low for the cost, people of a culture do not accept the change. If the value is high and the cost is low, people accept the change. Marketing of hardware and software revolves around changing culture with every evolution of Moore's Law. This is not too different from Friedman's, 'The Lexus and the Olive Tree' - in fact, it may be derivative of that and many other things. In Mexico, the Olive Tree - or identity - is important, and the Lexus (technology change) may not be seen as important. But the two aren't as distinct as academic discussion can allow for. The two terms exist so that people can think about them in an encompassing way, but too often we talk about dominance between the two when the real trick is balance. So now, when we speak of technological change in a culture, we are talking about many different kinds of changes. First, there is the effect of the technology itself. Second, there is the technology's original culture. Third, there are derivative changes in culture - as time progresses, more changes occur because of previous changes. So yes - giving laptops to everyone might have a negative cultural impact - and it surprises me that I could come to that statement - but I have to also redirect to the point of value and cost. If in Mexico, as an example, the culture sees a value that outweighs the cost - the change can still be 'good' or 'bad' depending on where one is standing and where you are relative to a stream of light. But the changes do have to occur as well. Good and bad are subjective. But if we are intent in building technological bridges in a world where every country is promising it's citizens that the specific country will be a 'developing nation' - well, I'm sure that the real problem is not technological, but rather seeking a culture's identity while trying to implement the technology. I think cultural change is inevitable. And one of the points I have been trying to make in the $100 million laptop debate is similar - technology change has to be managed by the culture that is implementing it, not the culture that insists that it 'knows the right way'. India has seen an upsurge in problems with it's technological changes. Some say some of those those changes are good, some say that they are bad - but isn't a culture's primary job that of regularizing the changes within the culture itself? Do we measure progress in how many dual income families there are? How does one measure the progress of a culture - the change? Indeed, the only progress measurement I know of is a weird thing called 'survival'. But that doesn't mean that all aspects of the culture survive. Greece didn't have coffee before the Ottoman empire, but how many Greeks consider coffee a part of their culture? Interesting thing to consider. Change can be a nasty bad thing, or it can be a good thing. The answer, really, lies with the younger generations because whatever changes occur to the culture of their parents, it's their future culture we're discussing. And oddly enough, it's not ours.

Re: [DDN] Intel: Poor Want 'Real' Computers (fwd)
Thank you Cindy for the kind words... "One of the major problem is, we tend to simplify things and provide a ONE-size-fit-all solution. We think what works in Latin America will work in Asia..." Both of which are CONTINENTS with a myriad of geographic, economic, and sociological environments, not to mention ethnicities, cultures, languages, often with multiple dialects within those. Solutions to the problems that any one country faces still has to engage the millions of individuals that make up a given society which likely has urban, suburban, exurban, and rural components. So indeed, "technology is not the problem--people is." The good thing about ICT is we can bring minds together from across the world to try get a handle on a given problem. I am pretty much a Luddite terrified by the prosepct of even downloading music, let alone building a Blog. There, I said it! On the other hand, I am Blessed with a gift of gab and a mind that can cut through the nonsense and get to the core of certain issues. This hasn't made me any $$ but I have been able to help some folks learn to use the technologies I don't understand to their advantage. Each to their own abilities. I look to people like Andy, Taran, Phil, Dr. Bork, Cindy, Claude, the indefatiguable Bonnie Bracey and all the rest of our DDN brethren to fill in the gaps. All the Best!

RE: [DDN] Intel: Poor Want 'Real' Computers (fwd)
Hi Cindy Your comments are so straightforward and incisive. We are in danger of blaming technology, or the lack of it, for the digital divide, whereas people seldom consider themselves as having some responsibility for their own position. This is not to minimize the problems that exist where access is an issue, but it's not the main issue. As a thought, if computers were introduced into an environment, be it a country or a community, where previously there were no computers, and everyone had access, would there still be a digital divide? In Ireland the town of Ennis was selected for an experiment by the Irish Government and DELL who put a computer in every home in the town along with an internet connection. No-one had an excuse not to use a computer and no-one had an excuse not to get online. It would be interesting to see how many in that town are now buying new computers to replace the originals which are now well out-of-date. If the computer has become an integral part of life they would be making every effort to buy their replacement just as they would replace their washing machine. What I would love to know is if there has been a higher than average purchase of computers to Ennis than to any other town in Ireland. Perhaps someone might know the answer to that. The usual thought for the day from Ireland - Do washing machines keep your hands soft or is it your responsibility? Likewise do computers create the digital divide, or do people create it?

[DDN] More info on the MIT/Quanta laptop partnership
Here's the official press release from Negroponte's One Laptop Per Child initiative regarding the manufacturing partnership with Taiwan's Quanta. -andy Quanta Computer Inc. to Manufacture $100 Laptop December 13, 2005—Cambridge, Massachusetts—The One Laptop per Child (OLPC) board of directors today announced that Quanta Computer Inc. of Taiwan was chosen as the original design manufacturer (ODM) for the $100 laptop project. The decision was made after the board reviewed bids from several possible manufacturing companies. In announcing the selection of Quanta, OLPC Chairman Nicholas Negroponte said, "Any previous doubt that a very-low-cost laptop could be made for education in the developing world has just gone away." Quanta has agreed to devote significant engineering resources from the Quanta Research Institute (QRI) in Q1 and Q2, 2006, with a target of bringing the product to market in Q4. The launch of 5-15 million units will be both in large-scale pilot projects in seven culturally diverse countries (China, India, Brazil, Argentina, Egypt, Nigeria, and Thailand), with one million units in each of these countries, and an additional modest allocation of machines to seed developer communities in a number of other selected countries. A commercial version of the machine will be explored in parallel. "Quanta would like to contribute its industry-leading laptop technologies to the future success of the project, in hope of affording children worldwide with opportunities not only to close the 'digital divide,' but also to bridge the 'knowledge divide.' This project signifies a new stage and scale for the laptop industry by including those children never before considered to be laptop users," said Quanta founder and chairman, Barry Lam. One Laptop per Child (OLPC) is a Delaware-based, non-profit organization created by Nicholas Negroponte and other faculty members from the MIT Media Lab to design, manufacture, and distribute laptops that are sufficiently inexpensive to provide every child in the world access to knowledge and modern forms of education. The laptops will be sold to governments and issued to children by schools on a basis of one laptop per child. These machines will be rugged, Linux-based, and so energy efficient that hand-cranking alone can generate sufficient power for operation. Mesh networking will give many machines Internet access from one connection. The pricing goal will start near $100 and then steadily decrease. The corporate members are Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Brightstar, Google, News Corporation, Nortel, and Red Hat. Quanta Computer Inc. was founded in 1988 in Taiwan. With over US $10 billion in sales, the company is a leading provider of technology products and solutions to Fortune 500 companies, including Dell, HP, and IBM. Quanta has the distinction of being the world's largest manufacturer of laptop PCs. The company also provides a full array of mobile phones, LCD TVs, and servers and storage products. With dedication to technological innovation and education, Chairman Barry Lam launched a new US $200 million R&D center, Quanta R&D Complex (QRDC), in Taiwan. The facility, which opened in Q3 of 2005, has 2.2 million square feet of floor space, and the capacity to house up to 7,000 engineers.

Re: [DDN] Taiwan's Quanta to manufacture MIT $100 laptop
That clearly raises its viability to begin with.. Regardless of the differences of opinion on the meaning of $100 laptop, even if it extends the boundary of computer's reach by another degree, it should be welcomed. The questions about how to use it and how to benefit more or better must go on in parallel.
