I thought that this was an interesting concept: Geekcorps

It’s an organization that teams up tech experts with (extremely) poor communities to become “digitally independent”. Kinda like the Peace Corps with electronics.

When I’m sitting around wondering why I’m working on stupid IT stuff, this kind of thing sparks an interest and a lot of “what ifs”. The organization currently does most of their work with Africa, but I’m sure that there are a lot of Central American and Caribbean countries that could benefit. Hmmm….
