I’m Asking For Your Help Spreading the Word
Filed Under Community
As many of the regular readers out there know I enjoy trying to educate the public about Ubuntu and Linux in general. By day I teach Linux as part of a company called Guru Labs. By nite I am a blogging super-hero that tries to document simple steps to making your Ubuntu machine more productive. I expect that with this new release of Ubuntu 7.10 that more and more people will be making the switch, and as part of the community it’s our job to help educate them. Today I would like to ask for your help with just that and it’ll just take a second.
If You Have a Blog
If you have a blog I would like to ask for a link on your blog roll. Each additional link on the web that can point here may lead to one more user finding and getting the tip they need and making Ubuntu more productive than what they might currently be using. If you are willing please add “Ubuntu Tutorials” to your blog roll pointing to the home page, http://ubuntu-tutorials.com.
If You Don’t Have a Blog
If you don’t have a blog and you read this via an RSS or email subscription please consider one of the following:
- If you subscribe indirectly, ie; via one of the many Planets, consider a direct RSS subscription to Ubuntu Tutorials.
- If you know someone that could use these tips consider helping them subscribe via RSS (Google Reader is a good option).
- If you know someone not quite ready for RSS perhaps forward them the Email Subscription link.
I am really passionate about educating people about Ubuntu and Linux–its what I do and I really enjoy it. I can only educate those that know where to come, and for that I need your help.
Thank you for being willing to spread the word. I try hard on this blog and I hope you all appreciate and have found parts of it useful. Thank you for your consideration in spreading the word.
If this site has been useful, please consider participating in the Fundraiser.

What am I accomplishing by subscribing to your blog directly?
Hello Christer
Ubuntu Tutorials have been in my blogroll for a very long time. What’s wrong with the Ubuntu wiki for documentation and education?
Allright, because you ask so nicely ;). keep up the great work!
@bapoumba - nothing is wrong with those and I have those on this blogs blogroll. I feel the key difference in this vs the documentation wiki is that I can send the instruction to you vs asking you to go find the instruction on the wiki.
I already had it on my blog (right below Ubuntu Forum) and on my yahoo! Mail RSS feeds!!
Great Job!!

Done-and-done.
Used to be subscribed just through Planet Ubuntu, but I’m directly subscribed and there’s a blogroll link now.
Love the blog. Happy birthday, too.

@Chister
I never did get an answer. I wasn’t trying to be a jerk or anything, and I already added you to my Google Reader list, because I assume there is a reason that is preferable to reading through Planet Ubuntu.
I just don’t know what that reason is.

It can hardly be better than this - apparently you’re features in FullCircle Magazine
(OK, the reviews of websites there are pretty lame - wow! you’ve got an RSS feed! - but it’s free publicity :P)
