Village the Game: Play it. Love it. Live it.

Darian did a presentation to the Reuters Digital Vision Program on Thursday at Stanford and it went incredibly well. A few leads and lessons learned:

• Conveying the Village vision is ten times more effective as a PowerPoint presentation at an organized meeting rather than as a casual conversation at a noisy bar.
• The search for the right Stanford people to advise Village is much farther along now.
• The game is going to be much more useful to existing social entrepreneurs thanks to the input that the RDVP fellows are feeding into the design.
  
• We might have to change the name of the game to "Pimp my Village". They liked that name a lot.
