I'm a web social entrepreneur, co-founder and CEO of E-180.
E-180 is currently a blog on consensual education, social entrepreneurship and social media. Ultimately, E-180 will become a social enterprise, a matchmaking website where people can jumpstart their learning by finding and meeting great mentors. For free.
E-180 is a place where people reclaim and redefine their own education, where all human beings develop their own potential and contribute to the development of other’s. We envision a world where everyone’s a mentor.
We will be launching our beta application in September 2009.

This movement to the offline world is so meaningful for us, social entrepreneurs. It brings us to use the web as a tool, rather than as an end. Not that I believe in a difference between the "online" and the "offline" world: it's still our lives that are affected by a great blog post, our perceptions modified by a comment on Twitter and our brains reflecting on a great chat session while eating lunch. Relationships are relationship, and an offline meeting isn't necessarily the only beneficial end to a new encounter.
But some stuff just works better when you get your hands dirty. Someone has to plant that tree. Someone has to give that vaccine. Someone has to sit down in front of a coffee and ask you what's wrong. That's where the movement toward an offline web-generated community is so meaningful: because sometimes, change needs some hands to get dirty. Tons of hands. -
