I searched for "One Laptop Per Child Hero" and expected to see your name or
Negroponte.

To my dismay, Google returned a complete stranger to me, Masi Oka.

Do you know why OLPC appointed Masi Oka, an actor and special effects
specialist, as its Global Ambassador to sell its 400US$ "Give One Get One"
computers.

Is the campaign "Give One Get One" the hero's idea?

Cheers,

PhiHo.
