Three points:

o Unesco
o TakingItGlobal
o Google AdSense

I was thinking the other day that the goals of
Wikipedia are in line with those of Unesco and I was
wondering if we could somehow try to become officially
connected with Unesco to gain a better reputation.  We
might also be able to get significant financial grants
from them in this way.

Also, I think it would good if we could put the
Wikipedia project and the Wikimedia foundation in the
TakingItGlobal database which is a database for
activists, so that we can connect.  TIG works as an
umbrella organization for other non-profits.

I know people are going to yell at me, but I think
Google AdSense would produce an incredible amount of
money for the project.  We could show them to
anonymous users and people who log in could turn them
off if they wanted.  Well anyway, it's just a
suggestion, don't bite my head off.

So, what do you think?

Chuck
