We first connected back in 2004 when I started my first blog on Cambodia and was covering the Cambodian Blogosphere for Global Voices. When I was looking at the end of the year (2010), what my goals were, I felt a little bit discouraged. What drew you to put your money and your mouth where your morals were? Not every day though.
