| Takyoji | Just got a reasonable idea | 20:33 |
| Takyoji | Perhaps some people could create Lightscribe labels for LiveCDs | 20:33 |
| Takyoji | Because I may consider at some point of doing that for the LiveCDs I'll be burning eventually | 20:34 |
| Takyoji | It'd look quite professional (with the appropriate disc color) without having to spend a lot of money on print materials and ink | 20:35 |
| Tecna | greetings, friends! | 21:50 |
| Tecna | is anyone here right now? | 21:50 |
| Takyoji | Yes | 21:52 |
| Tecna | I just stumbled in after some random clicking. I'm very dedicated to the mission to raise awareness of Linux. Could you fill me in here? | 21:58 |
| Takyoji | Sorry for my delayed responses, I'm just a little distracted. | 22:09 |
| Takyoji | Have you used Linux yourself at all, or? | 22:09 |
| Takyoji | Otherwise I'm very sorry, but I may be leaving shortly. Hopefully someone else may help you further on the topic; additionally I may return later in the day | 22:14 |
| Tecna | I've used linux off and on for years, and now use it almost exclusively since early fall | 22:19 |
| Tecna | I don't even have windows installed right now | 22:19 |
| Takyoji | Ahh, Ubuntu mainly? | 22:19 |
| Tecna | nope | 22:19 |
| Tecna | haven't settle on a distro | 22:20 |
| Takyoji | As for a general Linux marketing, I don't quite have a solid source to direct you to for that field of marketing | 22:21 |
| Takyoji | Do you have any abilities you'd be willing to contribute to such efforts? | 22:21 |
| Takyoji | Graphic design, simply spreading the word, etc | 22:21 |
| Tecna | I use Ubuntu plenty and endorse it for anyone who my have trouble learning to do what ubuntu does for the user. | 22:22 |
| Tecna | I'm fairly good with graphic design and multimedia communications. | 22:22 |
| Takyoji | As a side note, see if you can become a commoner of this channel. And perhaps invite a few other people you know as well to join | 22:25 |
| Takyoji | Just need to get more active members, then I think the marketing team could start having things like regular meetings and so forth | 22:26 |
| Tecna | I was, in fact, President of my high school's Video Production Club, a member of the community access news team, and a DJ for the local cable radio station, so I have experience in marketing and media. | 22:27 |
| Takyoji | There just seems to occasionally be rather enthusiastic people that come in completely desiring to help promote it, but to come and realize that this channel is a bit slow/quiet | 22:27 |
| Takyoji | ahh, good | 22:28 |
| Takyoji | I'm generally paid to be a web developer/designer, additionally I'm a photographer (and could probably do cinematography at the side as well) | 22:28 |
| Takyoji | Today I had the idea of creating a spiffy Lightscribe label that I could use for burning LiveCDs so that I wouldn't have to waste money on printing materials | 22:29 |
| Takyoji | But yea, it would be very helpful if you're willing to become a commoner and contribute material, or simply start some discussions to make it a little more active here | 22:31 |
| Tecna | I fix computers and offer support in my free time. I reccomend trying Ubuntu to everyone, and take the time to clear up misconceptions... | 22:31 |
| Tecna | the most common fear that I encounter is that they'll somehow damage their existing windows system and won't be able to change their minds... | 22:32 |
| Tecna | this is when I expalin the use of live CDs and wubi installations | 22:32 |
| Takyoji | ahh | 22:33 |
| Takyoji | So far I've done about.. 5 Linux installations | 22:33 |
| Takyoji | I might get about 3-4 more by installing Ubuntu on each laptop of a friend's family as well | 22:34 |
| Takyoji | The simply main question I always get is "Why doesn't everyone just use Ubuntu then?" | 22:34 |
| Takyoji | I may return in about 20 minutes; otherwise probably later tonight. | 22:35 |
| Takyoji | Hope to see you soon again, bye | 22:35 |
