About Me

My name is Salih Emin

I started using Linux based operating systems in 2001. First with Lycoris Linux, then with Mandrake and then with SuSE Linux. In 2007 I made the switch to Ubuntu and since then it is my personal and work related operating system!

I got involved with computers and Linux while working with customers in need for an alternative operating system and with the community in terms of technical support. This was an awarding experience because I learned lots of things about the "art of community" and "evangelism of Linux Desktop to consumers".

I work as an IT Consultant and Open Source Software Strategist in a private company and in my spare time I blog about Linux, create video tutorials, testing and bug reporting for Ubuntu development editions, and getting involved in various activities, with members of the Greek Ubuntu Community.

  • Salih has dedicated a lot of his time promoting Ubuntu, Linux and FOSS in Greece via his articles, his presentations and his presence in social networks. His contribution is very important and impressive as he is been doing a great job spreading the word about Ubuntu for many years and I believe he is a valuable asset to the community. ~eliasps
