Project 10 to the 100th

To celebrate Google's tenth anniversary, the company is going to spend up to $10 million on the most innovative ideas that will impact the most people. Hence, the contest is called Project 10 to the 100th, which is a REALLY big number.

The types of ideas are unlimited, but the concept is to select the best ideas (up to five will be "winners") that fit the following criteria:

Reach - How many people will be affected?
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?

Let's get some submissions from Maine! The deadline to submit an idea is October 20. Here is the web site: http://www.project10tothe100.com/how_it_works.html
