OLPC Pilot starts

I did a lot to OLPC's Blog, but forgot to mention on my own. Last week, OLPC Nepal launched first ever pilot distribution of the laptop. The 4th grader students of Janajyoti Lower Secondary School, Kavre were the lucky ones. The distribution was in coordination with Department of Education. The project was codenamed 'Sunrise'.

Last week had been very stressful. We spent most of our nights working at OLPC Nepal's Devel0pment Lab. Guys have even decided to call our office 'gudh' (home). It was wonderful being/workin with you all..

But our real work has jus begun. Distributing laptop was jus the end of the beginning. Now the monitoring of usage of laptop and the effect of this 'little wonder' is our primary task.
