The Hippo Water Roller is being used in rural Africa.
We could all use more money in these tough economic times. And Google wants to help.
So if you've got an idea to help the world - or at least some of your fellow citizens - Google wants to know about it.
And the Internet behemoth will pay $10 million for your pitch.
Google's initiative is called Project 10^100 (that's "10 to the 100th"). Google wants input from the public and its own panel of judges to help choose the five best ideas, which will be unveiled in February 2009.
From Google's press release: "These ideas can be big or small, technology-driven or brilliantly simple - but they need to have impact. We know there are countless brilliant ideas that need funding and support to come to fruition."
One of the ideas Google cited as having "winning" potential is the Hippo Water Roller, a water-carrying system being used in rural Africa.
