The first real (non-trial) deployment of OLPCs looks like it was a smashing success. Over a thousand children in Uruguay received the devices over a period of three days.

The Give 1 Get 1 program has been extended to December 31st. It’s a unique opportunity to take part in an amazing piece of history. This is an ambitious project that could have an incredible impact on the future of developing nations.

I’ll be getting my OLPC from one of the first shipments to Give 1 Get 1 participants. This is a program I’m proud to support.
