I'm 23 years old video-blogger, been to Film School and Multimedia Designers schools in Denmark.

I video-blog from consumer electronics shows and other Tech Events or Film Festivals.

On the 5th of May 2006, I was fortunate to briefly meet Nicholas Negroponte at the World Congress on Information Technology in Austin Texas. I went there to make a video-blog of the event. Nicholas Negroponte told me WiMax is over-hyped, that the laptop can do video and that it can basically do everything and is very fast. I wanted to ask if specifically full DVD resolution DivX video would work, and ask about the range of the Wifi-mesh but he was busy and had to go to some meetings.

I want to work with these two projects which might be usefull combined with the OLPC project:

1. Is about the Democratisation of releasing Video on the internet. I want to make Video hosting system that provides unlimitted storage and bandwidth to citizen journalists. It is because the storage is paid by the citizen journalist (few cents per GB per month depending on popularity of the content) and the bandwidth is paid for by the users who watch the content (few cents per GB of on-demand bandwidth). Peer-to-peer is used also so the bandwidth-on-demand is a seed-on-demand used to accelerate the p2p download.

2. I want to make a Truth Engine. It is a standard for organizing the public opinion on the Internet. A standard for posting arguments, counter-arguments and for the automatic highlighting of the public interest.

To realize those two projects, I need to work with programmers because I don't know how to program PHP/Mysql projects myself. I am trying to make some money, and as soon as I have made enough, I will start a company and hire programmers who would like to work on these projects.

Video on the internet. Provide interesting talks, documentaries, discussions and let the kid produce their own video to communicate their ideas with the world will be a very powerfull tool.

I would like to volunteer with OLPC for setting up the things related to OLPC around the world. If there will be a need for volunteers in third world countries, to help distribute, fix, setup internet access, setup WiMax2Wifi boxes in remote locations, or setup Video systems on the Internet. So if there is a need for young english-french-danish-german speaking adult with computer experience to volunteer in any country for setting up OLPC in any way, I am ready.
