It would be cool to see the economic numbers behind this data--but I found this very interesting. What does it have to do with telecenters?  if you think about the voices of the unvoiced--this is just the beginning.  Contribute, share, and things will open. Empower your students, give them a voice. This activity mimics the brain. Synthesis is synopsis, syntax. Only by expressing and connecting does the node become existent--created. The rapid and exponential growth we will experience in the next "era" (which could be as short as a few years)--will be fueled by the BoP generally. Conceived as emergent evolution or steps towards the singularity.
