I began playing with livecds such as Knoppix and Damn Small Linux since around April 2005 and I've been using Linux, primarily Ubuntu since approximately July 2005.

Just a little project to gather some interesting and possibly useful stats. Also to provide users with little blog or forum sig images with which to display their Ubuntu pride and spread the word of Ubuntu to the unwashed masses. = The Future = My dream is not to have every computer in the world running Ubuntu, although it would be nice. Rather, I dream of the day that everyone '''knows''' that they have a choice. I enjoy working with all the wonderful people in this community to help Ubuntu grow and be strong, and I hope to remain a part of it. |
