I hummed Joni Mitchell all day yesterday. It\u00a0was filled with a mixture of life cycle events.<\/p>\n
I dropped my daughter off at the airport, seeing her start on the next chapter of her own life in a new\u00a0home overseas; I\u00a0joined the celebrations for a new corporate office; I attended\u00a0a funeral\u00a0for the father of a colleague. The comments\u00a0in the eulogies\u00a0seemed to tie the day together for me, serving as an inspiration to make an impact with our brief time on planet Earth.<\/p>\n

As I have written before, we need one million computers to provide an opportunity to participate in the digital economy in the households with the greatest needs. I’d like to hear your ideas on how to move forward.<\/p>\n
I am getting together with some colleagues early on Monday evening to discuss the issue. In the meantime, your thoughts would be appreciated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
