Summary
I developed (nearly) all of the code behind SpreadUbuntu, and most of the configuration, which took me a half a summer, a winter break, and another summer break to get fully refined. I did have help and support from other users (namely huayra). but I did most of the work. Currently seen at http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/
- I have an RSS widget and frequently help new users with problems I have experience with whenever I see them.
- I spread awareness of Ubuntu to the peers who I help with computer troubles, and recommend it when appropriate.
About Me
My hobbies are web development and exploring Ubuntu Linux. I enjoy the flexibility of using Ubuntu on a daily basis. I use it for many things, but mainly to help me develop websites like neomenlo.org and spreadubuntu, which is currently located at http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org.
Contributions
Working on the Drupal 5 framework for SpreadUbuntu DIY
As the lead developer for SpreadUbuntu, I have helped tens of thousands of people spread ubuntu to an unknown, but large number of people.
- Give out Ubuntu CDs from my dorm room at NIU, and have personally installed Ubuntu on 3 computers
- Helped others on the Ubuntu forums. I have an RSS widget that I routinely look at and jump on problems that I can answer.
I run a blog http://echowarp.neomenlo.org/ where I post ideas that I come up with, and short scripts that I write.
Goals
- Create a spreadubuntu website that finally earns the "spreadubuntu.com" domain
- Nearing completion
Add great new components to SpreadUbuntu, like LoCo centralization.
- Taking C++ classes and will hopefully be able to contribute code to Ubuntu or its many applications in the future.
- Learn python to make fun scripts
- I have made a cool little window that displays how much time is left in my day as a progress bar, then notifies me when it's time to go to bed.
Testimonials
Please add. All I really want is to be recognized for my hard work on SpreadUbuntu.
