Misses popularity

Esto salió en el Washington Post... Demasiado, demasiado!

SIGN OF THE TIMES: The Chilean billionaire who brought credit cards to his country's junta-enforced free market in the 1970s is now injecting Facebook into its democracy. The only potential presidential candidate to join the social-networking Web site, Sebastián Piñera crushed his likely competitors for the 2009 election in a recent poll. Luis Ramirez, founder of the One Computer Per Child movement in Chile and of the Web site UCPN.cl, wants Piñera to use Facebook to usher in another trend: digital access for Chile's poorest children. But among the "Causes" displayed on Piñera's profile, such as "Stop Abortion!" and "A Boyfriend for Romy, Dah and Cony," UCPN is nowhere to be found. At least, not yet. "If Piñera joins our cause through Facebook . . . we are sure we can convince him about our campaign's goal," Ramirez said in an e-mail. " 'In Facebook we trust.' "
