It is 7am in Brisbane however I have been up a couple of hours already - I need to get back into the whole day and night thing.

I have found an old forum post that I thought I would share:

Just a quick heads up to everyone to take a look at http://www.kiva.org .

Basically it is a company that allows micro loans to be made to entreprenuers in developing countries ie. £20 - £100 le blurb:

Kiva lets you connect with and loan money to unique small businesses in the developing world. By choosing a usiness on Kiva.org, you can “sponsor a business” and help the world’s working poor make great strides towards economic independence. Throughout the course of the loan (usually 6-12 months), you can receive email journal updates from the business you’ve sponsored. As loans are repaid, you get your loan money back.
