    Obama got the Nobel, for what? This guy comes up with a brilliant, practical way to help millions really cheaply, saving hundreds of thousands of wasted manhours that can be better focused on directly getting the help where it's needed, quickly. Awe-inspiring! And huge kudos to all the individuals, and yes, big corporations that jumped at the idea and are making it happen so fast!

    I'm really excited that Josh is one of our speakers at the 2011 Alleviating Poverty Through Entrepreneurship Summit! If you're in the Central Ohio area on April 15th, 2011 (filing your taxes maybe?) you should come check out this free event. Josh will be joined by a bunch of awesome speakers including the co-founder of Kiva, Jessica Jackley. RSVP here: bit.ly/RSVPforAPTE
