[BadVista Advocate] My blog

[Jacob Maynard]

Hello to all,

I think anonymous is taking to us a little more. I've been thinking about
it, and I think that the campaign for BadVista needs a more focused
direction. I also think that the site for BadVista needs to be arranged in
a different way.

My thoughts are that we need to provide more information about Linux on
the site that actually pertains to your average user. I think that a
"council" should decide a couple of distributions, focus on them, and
explain them in detail. My thoughts even went to creating interactive
tutorials via Shockwave, or something like that, to demonstrate what it
looks like to use Linux. Of course, this "council" could just be everyone
coming to a decision on all of this stuff.

One of the major problems is that we need to get the "super-geek" image
out of everyone's head when the name Linux is mentioned. It needs to be
associated with everyone.

I thought I'd throw this out there and get everyone's opinion on the
matter. If you have an opinion, please let me know. I have become quite
attuned to this issue in the last couple of days.

Jacob
