Here's a thread for links with polls where you can go vote for Kiva.

To start, from Kate (Kiva Staffer)

Please vote for Kiva in the influential blog that many tech
journalists read! Smiley

http://valleywag.com/tech/poll/what-are-the-valleys-hottest-startups-251147.php

It's a long shot (we're up against Facebook, LinkedIn, etc) for the
Silicon Valley's most exciting new tech company...hey and we're a
non-profit too!

I get up in the morning determined to both change the world and to have one hell of a good time. Sometimes, this makes planning the day difficult.

It's a long shot...

Just went back to check on the results, after voting earlier in the week.
The results were in - Kiva came in 4th.  Congratulations everyone.

Valleywag (http://valleywag.com/tech/poll-results/the-valleys-20-hottest-startups-252243.php) don't seem too impressed though suggesting:

Kiva, the person-to-person loan company, is an interesting concept; but is the venture, which ranked fourth in our poll, really doing that well?

I am sure we will all rush to suggest otherwise.

The top 3 were:
1st Facebook, 2nd Jingle Network, 3rd Linked In

If you think you're too small to make a difference try sleeping in a closed room with a mosquito, or give kiva.org a try.
