| hubuntu | hi there | 21:07 |
| === hubuntu is now known as huayra | ||
| huayra | guys I'm thinking og a marketing campaign for Ubuntu. I want to kickstart it this weekend | 21:08 |
| huayra | or maybe next week | 21:08 |
| huayra | it involves basically many elements of our community, but it is meant to show Ubuntu as an option for professional users | 21:09 |
| huayra | and not so professional too ;) | 21:09 |
| huayra | so, anyone interested in the details? | 21:09 |
| huayra | I'll be here for a couple of hours... let me know | 21:11 |
| huayra | it involves a marketing campaign, an ad, a storyt/page adapted for Ubuntu LoCo sites (drupal), and the source for the whole material that's to be uploaded to SpreadUbuntu | 21:12 |
| meoblast001 | hi huayra | 21:21 |
| meoblast001 | huayra: i would love to know | 21:21 |
| huayra | hi meoblast001 | 21:44 |
| meoblast001 | hi | 21:44 |
| huayra | ok, basically a guy I know saw this ad in a magazine and got a good idea | 21:45 |
| huayra | have you seen the less than fries or less than coffee Microsoft ads? | 21:45 |
| huayra | They have been running a campaign for like 4 years | 21:45 |
| huayra | so I thought we could try something similar to that, but take the community angle | 21:45 |
| huayra | S | 21:45 |
| huayra | So I am working on it right now, but I want to get big attention to the campaign | 21:46 |
| huayra | and so we need the LoCo teams to help out ;) | 21:46 |
| huayra | let mw help you get an idea of what I mean | 21:47 |
| huayra | http://microsoft.no/kaffekopp | 21:48 |
| huayra | http://freecode.no/kaffekopp | 21:48 |
| huayra | the picture in the ad was made by us | 21:48 |
| huayra | @ FreeCode | 21:49 |
| huayra | so, in an understandable language: http://www.ubuntu.ec/ruben/images/ubuntu/marketing/indesign%20package/freecode_sasm_trykk4Compressed.jpg | 21:50 |
| huayra | see that link and you get the idea of the ad | 21:51 |
| huayra | in the ubuntu.no site I am working with a preview of the LoCo site, but I'm having some javascript trouble | 21:51 |
| huayra | what do you think? | 21:52 |
| huayra | the svg produced by indesign | 21:52 |
| huayra | is not that good, but has all the elements | 21:52 |
| huayra | My plan is basically to make the code so people can just drop in in their drupal install as an article and change the links and text, publish all the elements so people can freely use it and announce the whole thing in the planet | 21:58 |
| huayra | from there it should spread preety fast | 21:58 |
| huayra | ideas? | 21:58 |
| huayra | meoblast001? | 21:58 |
| meoblast001 | oh sorry | 21:59 |
| meoblast001 | reading... | 21:59 |
| meoblast001 | what you said | 21:59 |
| huayra | np | 21:59 |
| meoblast001 | huayra: does that come in english? | 22:01 |
| huayra | well the text in the image is English | 22:01 |
| huayra | but I have to change the "where the cookie crumbles" | 22:02 |
| huayra | part | 22:02 |
| huayra | and the text in the page will be in English, of course: http://freecode.no/cupofcoffee | 22:02 |
| huayra | I have this beta ;) | 22:02 |
| meoblast001 | the MS ad is not available in english | 22:02 |
| huayra | mm | 22:34 |
| huayra | I'm not sure | 22:34 |
| huayra | but they have this: lessthancoffee.co.uk | 22:34 |
| huayra | lessthancoffee.com | 22:34 |
| huayra | lessthanfries.com | 22:34 |
| huayra | they have run that campaign for 4 years | 22:34 |
| huayra | meoblast001 ? | 22:40 |
| meoblast001 | oh sorry | 22:41 |
| huayra | np, I just want feedback | 22:41 |
| meoblast001 | ok | 22:41 |
| meoblast001 | ahh ic | 22:42 |
| meoblast001 | sounds cool | 22:42 |
