Absolutely agreed. Which is why I'm trying to specifically do that right now. (If it's not obvious, I'm the guy who delivered this speech.)
But I absolutely disagree that web developers can't impact poverty in Africa (or, maybe more importantly, in their own town).

- ippisl 14y agoI wonder if we could connect more innovators to environments and communities with real problems, in some interesting way , and by this connection enable those innovators to gain perspective, knowledge and connections to work on the problem ? Something that's built in such a way that a community create a lot of knowledge about the problem and context(general situation, current solutions and their limitations) , but maybe not the solution, so people could be more motivated to implement their invented solutions?
