That's a 250 mb MP4 file. Very nice quality, but a big download.
http://akvo.org is a new NGO startup which is using open technologies to solve water and sanitation problems.
http://appropedia.org is the appropriate technology wiki.
This is really splendid. I have a longer interview with Chris coming up, but it needs proper editing and I'm a bit over-stretched right now. I'm uploading to Google Video now, and I'll let you know when its done.

I found this really interesting - I learnt a lot about Mark & Akvo that I didn't know until the interview started. He expressed very well the issue of organizations each having their own silos of knowledge, and the potential that arises from opening them up.
