So for the last 6 months I've been thinking for about getting an iPad or an Android. A couple of weeks ago at our team banquet the team presented me with a gift of an iPad. Super !!

So what do I do with it ? One of the things I do is pitch FIRST, teams in Georgia, and of course our team.

I've got my elevator pitch. I'm pretty decent at starting conversations, telling people about this really cool thing that is getting kids excited about education and changing the world.

Now I can go beyond the elevator pitch. I can whip out the iPad, and in 60 seconds show them some pictures, some video, some graphics. If a picture is worth a million words, then adding some video, graphics, and power points is billions of words.

The iPad, and Android are media delivery devices. Use it to your advantage, spread the word, get some support.

With a good pitch and media on the device, and some enthusiasm, you might could turn $ 600 into $ 6,000.

my 2 cents.
