The Linux Index

I was excited to get this in my in box this morning.. (and at the same time a little sick)

Hi Steve,

I’m writing to let you know that your talk was chosen for the Ohio
LinuxFest, to take place on September 29, at the Greater Columbus
Convention Center (GCCC) in Columbus, Ohio…..

Best,
Zonker

The Ohio Linux Fest is the largest conference and expo for FOSS professionals and enthusiasts in the Midwest USA.

The topic I will be presenting will be on “Beginninig with Ubuntu.” The topic is aimed at new users to Ubuntu with the intentions of helping them find resources in the Ubuntu Community, how the Community is structured, and “what happens after I click INSTALL?…” I hope the presentation will be helpful to long time Ubuntu users, as the presentation will focus a great deal on community and community support.

Any and all suggestions are welcome

Think back to when you were a new Linux user or just started out with Ubuntu….

• Do you have any “If I only knew then what I know now…” examples?
• What was your #1 resource for information on using Ubuntu?
• What wisdom would you leave with a new Ubuntu/Linux user?

I am also looking for a groovie template for this presentation.

If you are withing Driving distance, The Ohio Linux Fest is a great event, and I promise you will have a bunch of fun!
