[For the Tanzanians, I see a future in which the power of the Internet not only enables people to transcend social and economic inequality but gives them concrete tools, social capital, and inspiration to lead the world forward. I see the seeds of this future being planted here in this event, and I am working with Edgar Telesphory, head of the open source movement in Tanzania, to get the media involved. In fact, further, I think it's no accident that an African concept, ubuntu](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_(philosophy)),  gives the most popular open source OS in the world its name. I hope the collaborative spirit my mother has told me she has encountered as a volunteer in Tanzania can lend wisdom to a field that is in the West driven, sometimes to its detriment in my opinion, by hard capitalism.
