 Huh? 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.  Smiley

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.

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.

Great idea for a poll.   Would you add NPR?

Hello,

I first heard about Kiva while listening to the Living on Earth podcast.

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     Thumbs Up
