Just bumped into this Google page soliciting ideas on how to “change the world by helping as many people as possible”. Project 10^100 (that’s the name of the project) will select five (5) finalists and will bankroll their implementations with a $10M fund.
Now I’m trying to squeeze my brain for some really pretty cool ideas but all I’m getting is a pretty vague one involving GIS/Geohazard mapping. Anyway, the deadline is still on October 10 so there’s still time to refine things.
