With all the hoopla going on in the Tech world with Microsoft posting over on YouTube about people interested in Vista, Mac unleashes their latest operating system on us called Leopard and Linux making stronger inroads to the desktop operating system, we are in need of a fresh approach to giving the consumer a different alternative.

Enter Why Linux is Better by Manu Cornet .

Manu explains things his way with a fresh approach to what the Linux world has been telling us all along. A nice touch is that he offers the site in many different languages so the visitors from different countries will most likely find their language represented.

Manu also spices things up with graphics depicting things like Viruses, a House of Cards, and so forth. This is what the Linux world needs to help bring more attention to what seems to be the best open source operating system available to us all for the cost of a little labor. The labor of installing it that is.

I myself am an avid Ubuntu Linux user and have never been happier with an operating system. I really couldn’t tell you when the last time was that I booted back into XP Pro for anything. That should say something about Ubuntu.

Visit Manu’s site and see for yourself what you may have been missing in what’s surely going to be one of the best contending operating systems available for the consumer today. Did I mention that most all Linux distributions are free? I think that’s incentive enough right there to see for yourself! :)

Seeing as I am apparently not getting to write as often as I’d like to lately, I’ve added a news feed from my Google Reader for the latest things related to technology. A link will take you to either the story itself or my shared feeds depending on which link you click. The one at the bottom will take you to the shared feeds page itself while the story link will of course, take you to the story itself.

Google Reader allows you to easily keep track of your favorite websites and see all the updates in one convenient location. This works out especially well for me as it allows me to skim over them looking for the ones that particularly interest me the most. You can get yours at Google’s site by just signing up. It’s simple and easy to use.

Now this part of my post is for you spammers out there that just can’t seem to understand that your garbage just isn’t going to get posted on my blog. Try as you might…it just ain’t happening. Askimet is a wonderful thing and it works flawlessly. So you might as well give it up because you aren’t getting your garbage published here. Why not try for a TV ad. There’s plenty of airspace getting mucked up with similar ads anyway. :P
