Ubuntu Contributions
I began using the ubuntu forum's for getting help with issues like wireless and boot problems. I loved the community so much that when my schedule changed and allowed me the time to help others I started learning as much as I could so I would be able to help new people resolve issues so they will be able to keep using ubuntu. I am currently helping family and friends install and use ubuntu on there computers.
I started out contributing in Absolute Beginners and General Section of the forum but I have found a home with some great people in wireless and networking so that is where I do most of my contributing now on a daily basis.
I also am testing Oneiric but to be honest my computer does not run it very well at the moment.
Before starting in the networking section I created a blog for setting up the cube and effects in Natty with pictures for every step, I still check on the blog daily.
