What’s better being the nerdy guy on a nerdy hit TV show? Being a nerd in real life, of course. Masi Oka — you probably know him as Hiro from NBC’s Heroes — has it all going on, and has now signed up to be OLPC‘s “ambassador” to really flesh out his resume.

Masi’s role as global ambassador pretty much means he’ll be doing some TV spots to “promote the importance of empowering children with learning tools and Internet connectivity,” but we’re sure he can put some of those time-bending powers to good use to erase all that “$100 dollar laptop” nonsense of yesteryear.
