Mesh magic: Fifteen minutes of fame

Today’s fifteen minutes of fame focused on some totally awesome social
Web 2.0 orgs and people. There was Favorville, an experiment in
goodwill. There was Gary King, a high school student who totally
understands the power of passion (hey, he got mesh to sell him a
student ticket after they’d all sold out!). There was
Taking IT Global, which is terrific for engaging youth in social
issues.

They rock.

Random Japanese sentence: このワイン、すごくおいしい。 This wine is good enough to make a cat laugh.
