I find not direction in the readings of those with whom my eccentricities are similar, but rather validation.
My only solace is that I find a peaceful place where I might be resigned to my depriving loneliness.

Thanks, I think the poll aspect of the forum is lots of fun, as the forum grows Im sure we will see more participation and more polls.

Good poll. I added a few more options. Joe, could you please modify the "New York Times" to "New York Times and reprints". I read about KIVA first in the Omaha World Herald which reprinted the New York Times article. |

 Just surfing the 'net and one place took me to another and then to another.......I could say 'curiosity' led me to Kiva.

I added a few more options today also. And gave voters the ability to change their vote, if a choice now exists that is more descriptive of where they actually heard of it. --Diane. |

Thanks Diane. Im guessing in time there will be too many "ways to find out about Kiva" to list...and that will be entirely a positive thing. Also thanks for letting people change their vote because after Joe added a few more specific options I went back to modify it, but that option was no longer available.

Great idea for a poll. Would you add NPR?

When I heard the announcement that the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize was going to Mohammed Yunus and Grameen Bank, I googled, and voila, I immediately started lending to Kiva  |
