This site has grown so huge I have no idea where to post this to get the best attention. In March 2007 we did a 24 hour "Kivathon" that I think many of you remember. It was hugely successful and raised a lot of Kiva awareness before Bill Clinton's book and the Oprah show. We rocked that day and brought a lot of people into Kiva.
For the third year of my weekly live VUC telephony conference on Fridays, we are organizing another 24 hour live interactive podcast called the "Voipathon". The idea is to show how online communities change the world. Kiva.org is still the best example of this in my mind.
On March 26th, 2010 we are organizing a 24 hour live phone in to discuss online communities and how they help make the world a better place. I did this three years ago with Kiva.org and it made a lot of people aware of Kiva.
Kivafriends represents a vital online community and I would very much like to hear from any of you. Because we will be running 24 hours, the excuse "it's at a bad time" will not fly! I definitely would like someone to take as much time as they like to talk more about Kiva these days. Having beent here for three years and with 228 loans active I could do this, but I can not be there awake for 24 hours.
