The Internet is Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize
March 10, 2010 18:22
From the Article:
The internet is among a record 237 individuals and organisations nominated for this year's Nobel Peace Prize.
The number of nominations surpasses last year's record of 205 nominations.
The internet's nomination has been championed by the Italian version of Wired magazine for helping advance "dialogue, debate and consensus".

The nomination for the internet is supported by 2003 Nobel Peace Prize winner Shirin Ebadi and the founder of the $100 laptop project Nicholas Negroponte.

It is unclear who would accept the prize if the internet were to win.
Internet for Peace, set up to help support the nomination of the internet, says the prize would be "a Nobel for each and every one of us".
