  • Ubuntu landed on Berlin metro system | Screenage - “The guys from “Berliner Fenster”, a company responsible for the content of the television system installed inside underground vehicles (more than 3.700 displays) were so kind (thank you!) providing us with a spot for our release party this Saturday for free. So just on time with the release starting from today there are small spots viewable by an audience of about 1.5 million people per day according to their web site.” See pictures of the ad.
  • n00.be » Ubuntu in Vermist - “we present to you the Belgian movie Vermist where police detectives apparently use Ubuntu as their operating system of choice…”
  • iTWire - Why we love Ubuntu Linux (or maybe we don’t) - “Ubuntu had all the signs of being the most unifying and popular Linux distro of all time, but on the other I kept finding people grumbling about it.

Perhaps Ubuntu has made itself a victim by virtue of its own marketing…”
  • Why Brazil Loves Linux : Gustavo Duarte - “These markets are also friendly towards Linux and pose significant challenges for Microsoft. This post is my take on the reasons for Brazil’s fondness of Linux. I speak for Brazil since I was born and raised there, but I think much of this applies to the other BRIC countries and emerging markets in general.”
