Alexis Ohanian shows off his OLPC.

Ian Chillag/NPR

At a baseball game, you get your baseball signed. At ROFL Con, you get autographs on your XO Laptop. Alexis Ohanian of Reddit is collecting the signatures of iCelebs, and he's already got Tron Guy, Denny Blaze, Leeroy Jenkins, and plenty others. Once he gets the entire internet, he's going to put it up ebay to raise money for One Laptop Per Child. Noting this week's OLPC news, Ohanian adds, "I'm doing this with the caveat that I'd really like them not to go with Microsoft."
