For now this links to my website for BALUG info so there is a link to join the mailing list. This is just temporary until we have another page together.
The One Laptop Per Child project was founded in 2005 by Nicholas Negroponte with a core of MIT Media Lab veterans. Its flagship XO laptop is a unique machine with features created specifically for children of the emerging world. Ed Cherlin, project contributor and author of the forthcoming book "Ending Poverty for Fun and Profit", will talk about the XO and demo its hardware and software.
