Discussion

I submitted an entry that was accepted and never published for voting. I had to see if my computer could recover the entry because of the time in between of normal computer updates that would have maybe deleted the evidence of my entry. I found it. I am going to send this over to your offices now. I think there is definitely sketchy behavior going on with contests.

We at Actuality Media is so excited to be a finalist. In our program, we take media students and emerging filmmakers to developing communities around the world and teach them how to make short documentaries about people who are changing the world. With such amazing films (www.actualitymedia.org/films) created, we need Goods help to find the most innovative ways to share it far and wide.

My idea is called "The Library of Forgiveness" and it's a user generated compendium of stories featuring people who have forgiven the wrongdoings of others.

Is this only open to American Citizens? I hope not, ...however, if so you are really cutting out a lot of good people and their "Global Reach" ideas....
