Dailymotion Partners with the One Laptop Per Child Foundation
The OLPC foundation [1] develops and distributes the XO computer, better known as the “$100 laptop” [2]. It is designed to be an affordable educational tool for children in developing countries.
Beneath its toylike exterior, the XO is a very advanced device with a rotating screen, dual laptop-tablet modes, a regular color display for photos and videos and a high-contrast black-and-white mode for daylight visibility. It sports wifi, is capable of creating local computer-to-computer networks, can be charged using a ripcord or solar panel, has a durable rubberized keyboard, webcam, microphone, and speakers. Above all else, however, it has a robust Linux-based OS and an user interface, named “Sugar”, designed specifically for children.
With all the bells and whistles above, the OLPC is not, unfortunately, compatible with the Adobe Flash player that Dailymotion and other video sharing sites rely on.
Dailymotion has therefore partnered with the OLPC foundation to
consider new projects involving video, and to create a dedicated space to save the videos created by XO users: olpc.dailymotion.com [3]. This page begins with the content of the Dailymotion OLPC group and hopes to bring together fun and educational videos for children from 6 to 16 years-old. If you produce videos for this audience, [4] we encourage you to contribute to and help animate this group.
Hello Children of the World!
[1] More info on the laptop and the foundation at laptop.org
[2] Yes, it costs more than $100 for the moment, but that should change…
[3] The videos are encoded in ogg, Vorbis Theora
[4] The should be appropriate for children, of course.

The OLPC computers don’t support Flash, they are Open Source throughout and avoid proprietary software. Daily Motion publishes its video in Flash but will now make video available in Ogg format for OLPC users.
OLPC is a long shot, hasn’t achieved its price goal yet and the Foundation’s fortunes go up and down with various partnerships. The computer that’s been produced so far totally rocks, though, according to reports we hear from people who’ve bought one.

It is 32 days since I made a complaint. I have sent 301 emails so far.
I have asked for someone out of 120 employees, to take responsibility and investigate my complaint as I can prove that the account melonooo belongs to me and me alone. I have over 4000 friends and I don’t want to loose all my messages. My account has been given to someone else, with a different email address from the email address I have used for the past year melon666@fsmail.net and now has access to my personal details. How is it that new friends are being accepted without my agreement? All the evidence is there for you to see. I have proved that you have sent notifications for account melonooo to my email address melon666@fsmail.net
I have now been told that Dailymotion will ignore my complaint and any questions from now on. Why do you refuse to abide by your own rules as stated below?
