I wonder how well the "think of it as a donation" model will work when it is Americans lending to Americans? I don't have any poor expectations or anything, it just feels a little different somehow because of our cultural baggage. I'm curious to see how it goes over.

Kiva has been a way to help the poor in the theoretical the developing world, That place with starving sad ad children that's plagued by everything & $1 a day can make such a difference in a child's life. When it's US-2-US, you are going to be associating this with something more real. I have no idea if it'll be associated positively or negatively .
