We should create some t-shirts which attract potential volunteers.

There are places with high densities of potential OLPC volunteers. Cambridge MA, campuses, conferences, etc. It might be nice to have "wearable advertising" for them. The next best thing to visibly carrying an XO. Something which brings potential volunteers forward, to talk, and potentially be hooked in.

300 thousand kids will enter primary school tomorrow.
2 million kids will enter primary school this week.

Including wiki.laptop.org might be useful, or not. It might reduce the number of people who come forward to talk.

Mechanics

A T-shirt might be made with low effort through something like CafePress (I've no experience with them). Or locally.
