Google is calling for ideas to help the world, to be submitted by October 20th.
Voting among 20 semifinalists will begin in January.
Google will put up $10 million US to help bring these ideas to fruition.
The criteria, copied from Google's site, where more info is available, are:
Criteria:
Reach: How many people would this idea affect?
Depth: How deeply are people impacted? How urgent is the need?
Attainability: Can this idea be implemented within a year or two?
Efficiency: How simple and cost-effective is your idea?
Longevity: How long will the idea's impact last?

I'm going for Anatomically Correct Campus for both health and education :) |

I'm going to submit my "Extra hour in bed for people born in the winter" - this would benefit about half the world's population. |

hmm... "Air Chariot" and "Flavoured Exhaust" from my collection.
