People didn’t believe me but when I retired from DCVB 60+ days ago, my goal was to decompress and get back in touch with some other aspects of my life after nearly 40 incredible intense years in destination marketing, more than half at DCVB.
My goal, based on some sage advice is to wait on firming up any plans including where I volunteer, for at least a year. But of course, with my penchant for reading, things catch my eye including the article in Rotary magazine this month about a global education program called One Laptop Per Child.
The image above is a $75 tablet third generation version due out in 2012 that Andy Greenberg reviewed just as I retired. This is a fascinating project to fuel education in remote areas, where virtually indestructible laptops can readily network with low or self power, empower teachers and open the world to kids 6 to 12 years old.
