John, we can find room to integrate some sort of Emancipation jewelry box or something when you are ready.

I'm at Games4Change in NYC now; the last speaker Allison Fine just spoke of Omidyar.net as a good attempt but mentioned that this will always be an imperfect and untrue system because there's an unlevel playing field at the foundation. She made interesting points on the freedom of speech here given that there's money on the other side of this network somewhere; she's now speaking on being a recovered "proprietary thinker" and encourages all of us to think about leadership differently by empowering our networks to pick up their own campaigns, versus trying to enlist people in our own projects.

I think most of us here have gotten beyond seeking funding from Omidyar Network but I'd love to hear whether you feel that our conversations here are stilted. There's more on funding, games and interactivity at http://inkenzo.blip.tv -- there was a great panel earlier with funders from foundations, corporations and government.
