User:Sj/Log/Cards and outreach

We spent part of the night working on designing the front and back of a simple card to pass out to educators and publishers interested in sharing content with OLPC. Currently the test reads "Reach millions of students in the developing world | Contribute material to OLPC http://edu.laptop.org". Reactions wanted; the url should redirect to Educators.

It isn't clear to me that this audience is going to know what to do when they get to the Educators page. Many would not have experience with wikis. 24.60.143.152 02:54, 6 July 2006 (EDT)

As of 2006-07-06 0745Z clicking on http://edu.laptop.org produces a "The page cannot be displayed" message.

What size are the cards going to be? If they are credit card size then people may be likely to put such a card in their wallet and thus have it readily available. The size specification for such a card is on the following page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_7810

Maybe Sharing your content with the OLPC project would be a better page to which an educator or publisher entering http://edu.laptop.org should be automatically redirected.

That's a great title for a related page, perhaps to be transcluded for the educators (and also for other groups). Sj 13:29, 6 July 2006 (EDT)
