This informal presentation will discuss omidyar.net, a newly-forming network created by the eBay founder Pierre Omidyar: The goal of the network is: "So that more and more people discover their own power to make good things happen." Tom Munnecke will present some visions for possible future capabilities of the network, based on his work on the Uplift Academy started as a fellow with the Stanford Digital Vision Program.

The purpose of this meeting will be to discuss and brainstorm innovative ways of using the associative technology of Google for humanitarian uplift. This might include the concept of Elevator Links, which might topically relate web information to uplift organizations.
