Bringing One Laptop per Child to Colombia: TED in the Field

I love the way TED guys think. They surprise me by doing wonderful things. Here is an example of a new initiative by them: TED in the Field. This new series on TED.com offers updates from past speakers and updates from new speakers, products, and ideas. It is good to know how the TED speakers do the great things they talk about.

This time TED follows Nicholas Negroponte to Colombia as he delivers laptops inside territory once controlled by guerrillas. His partner? Colombia's Defense Department, who see One Laptop per Child as an investment in the region. (And you too can get involved.)
