For the (Microfinance) Video Generation

With all the hubbub in the press recently about the acquisition of YouTube.com by Google, I decided to check out what these online video services had to offer on the subject of Microfinance.

Youtube.com had a few interesting snippets, but I found some real gems at video.google.com.

They have posted videos from a Social Impact Investing Forum they sponsored in June, 2006. Among others, there is an hour-long presentation by Ms. Maria Otero (CEO of ACCION), a major player in global Microfinance. Highly recommended!

In short, if you are a member of the so-called "video generation," you can learn about Microfinance too.

Please let me know if you find anything else interesting.
