We're dedicated to profit and non-profit motives simultaneously. Great technology foments social change. But better for us to spur that ourselves, early and often, than hope that it will happen otherwise.

I simply don't understand the demonization of profit. Wikipedia and craigslist are so great that they didn't need to eschew monetization for fear of consequences. Even ads on one-tenth of their pages could produce enormous benefits in related non-profits.

To me, the true power of information is in the minds who shape it. Web companies can never go wrong in supporting educational initiatives. In growing brains, the interpipes will flourish. It's a learning medium through and through. Foster a diverse user base, and the technologies will continue to be revolutionary.
