pleia2 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions | 01:50 |
pleia2 | if you go down to the "In the Press" section you'll see about a million links, look on those sites for ubuntu news | 01:50 |
pleia2 | then put the links in https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en&pli=1 under the "In the Press" section | 01:51 |

philipballew | aww, i'm sorry pleia2 I know that can be sad | 01:54 |
pleia2 | actually I'm a little relieved, I don't know the couple we're meeting (friends of MJ) and I'm always shy and awkward at such dinners ;) | 01:56 |
* pleia2 enjoys evening at home | 01:56 | |
philipballew | a friday night at home for you? you seem like the person out all night! haha I souppose they would not want someone who is shy at dinner. | 01:57 |
philipballew | but you seem outgoing in a lot of way pleia2 | 01:58 |
pleia2 | I am ok when I'm the leader, but mostly I am quite shy | 01:59 |
philipballew | hum. we all have our places where we excell and dont in others. its what makes the world work | 02:00 |
pleia2 | :) | 02:01 |
pleia2 | gosh this list on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions is long | 03:51 |
pleia2 | adding what I can to my rss reader, but it's a chore :) | 03:51 |

NRWlion | ok, i am getting back to my work now | 08:01 |
NRWlion | hi jono | 08:04 |
philipballew | pleia2, hey! so I found an interesting article. well to me... how do I determine where i put it or if it should go anywhere in google docs | 17:11 |
pleia2 | philipballew: you can paste it here | 17:11 |
pleia2 | we talk a lot in here as the weekend progresses | 17:12 |
philipballew | http://ubuntu.igameilive.com/2011/07/what-orange-is-ubuntu-orange.html | 17:12 |
pleia2 | good one, but we already have the source article included (the canonical design post) | 17:13 |
philipballew | i see, that makes sense. do they have to be on the list of websites or am I allowed to go "into the wild and look"? | 17:14 |
pleia2 | please go into the wild :) | 17:14 |
pleia2 | I've done a basic browse through the massive list of sites (added a bunch to my RSS reader) | 17:14 |
philipballew | what level of computer knowledge ore we going after here? | 17:16 |
pleia2 | hard to say, but as long as it's related to ubuntu, it's worth looking at here at least | 17:17 |
pleia2 | so we don't want the latest kernel news (too generic linux), but "oneiric is shipping with $version kernel" is good | 17:17 |
philipballew | makes sence. ill paste them here in a bit when i get 5 or 6 | 17:18 |
philipballew | i assume uds sponsorships is already been mentioned. | 17:19 |
pleia2 | yep | 17:19 |
pleia2 | the google doc has everything we're planning to include this week | 17:20 |
* pleia2 shower | 17:20 | |

nlsthzn | Hey...quick question on the summary writing... how brief are you guys aiming for ... on the google doc, is "Run Ocelot, Run!" done for instance? | 21:25 |
philipballew | nlsthzn, i would do 2. 3 sentences max | 21:31 |
philipballew | i did the summery for run ocelot and its done | 21:31 |
nlsthzn | philipballew: OK cool... so it is really a quick condense look at the basic idea of the story... cool thanks... (Will see if I can chip in...) | 21:32 |
philipballew | basically. thats what i was told | 21:32 |
holstein | nlsthzn: they get looked at a lot | 21:33 |
holstein | if you get an idea, and its short, go for it | 21:33 |
holstein | it can always be edited | 21:33 |
holstein | i think the shorter and more conscise the better | 21:33 |
nlsthzn | ok, thanks :) | 21:34 |
nlsthzn | ... ok, this may sound retarded in this day and age but I have never used Google docs... ever... after making an edit... do I simply hit the save button? (man, do I feel stupid asking this...) | 21:45 |
holstein | nlsthzn: no worries | 21:46 |
holstein | it *should* auto-save | 21:46 |
MrChrisDruif | Indeed | 21:46 |
holstein | i usually put my name in the article im working on | 21:46 |
holstein | so no one else starts working on it too | 21:46 |
holstein | sometimes it doesnt auto-save and you need to hit the button | 21:46 |
holstein | the issue is, how to tell... | 21:47 |
MrChrisDruif | In the top right corner you should see a grayed-out rounded-down rectangle with "Saved" in it | 21:47 |
holstein | yeah ^^ and its mostly functional | 21:47 |
nlsthzn | oh yes... I see it now :p thanks... it says saved... | 21:48 |
nlsthzn | I was expecting an autosave... it makes sense... but didn't want to bet on it and loose anything :) | 21:49 |
NRWlion | morning america | 22:09 |

nlsthzn | btw, never saw the movie but did watch the live events... why would morning america be a quote from Invictus? | 22:16 |

NRWlion | nlsthzn: i just wanted to fool philipballew a bit | 22:17 |
nlsthzn | Ah... seems easy enough to do :D | 22:18 |
nlsthzn | ;) | 22:18 |
