Good find Chen Ni. Yeah, it's a lot like Kiva.org (which we found after we built out the germ of a concept), except there is a little interest to the lenders and lower interest to the borrowers than traditional microfinance. Outside the legal banking in the US (probably...one would need to get really creative), but worth chatting about.
