How can we use technology in the near future to help people in the developing world?

why would we? the DEVELOPED world has its own problems... further development of undeveloped world is NOT a good idea... we dont need MORE global warming, pollution, or population problems.

Condom distribution and enforced sterilization come to mind.
 
Show interested people in poorer, disadvantaged and resource starved communities how to build software applications and sell their software and software skills. Some places in Africa (or even reservations in the US) would be ideal locations if the communities there were to agree. Labour is cheap and there is more to be gained by the communities by building up some market share themselves and gaining profits as well as wages, rather than waiting for global corporations to capitalise on differentials and accrue the profits by shifting development to Africa at an opportune time in the future subject to governments agreeing terms that would be more skewed to the benefit of the corporations rather than the communities.
