    Question How do YOU contribute to Ubuntu?

    I think the spirit of Ubuntu is something we can all appreciate especially when we are the recipients, but how many of us are willing or able to give back to the community? Do we have more time than money? Do we have more ability than time? Maybe we have more money than either!? How can we best help?

    Re: How do YOU contribute to Ubuntu?

    I try to help out in the tech support forums, but I find I've been doing that less and less. I think I'll make a point of doing that more often.

    I help using the forums bandwidth.. lol.. i stay refreshing it all day, this is the only place i can cure my "boredom"

    And of course i help spreading ubuntu, i ve installed it for some friends, and aways help the newbies to install and configure it, but 99,9% come back to windows, and i end up losing time teaching them for nothing

    Re: How do YOU contribute to Ubuntu?

    I have been trying to get some people I know to give Ubuntu a spin. I also try to help out on the forums by pointing people to automatix and some how to's. I don't know enough about the technical aspects of Linux/Ubuntu to give detailed advice. As I learn more I will contribute according to my knowledge.
    Manually installing software and setting up your system is always preferable. However, there is not one thing wrong with using Automatix for getting it done the easy way. Get Automatix2 Support Here

    Talking I contribute by helping out newbies

    I contribute by:
    1. Helping out newbies with whatever little knowledge I've got
    2. Making polls and voting on polls that reflect crucial issues in Ubuntu.
    3. I had suggested a marketing idea to ubuntu, and as a result some laptop companies have started giving out pre-installed ubuntu on their machines.
    4. Using it, discovering new things that can be put to productive use by others, and share it through the forums.

    I help out on the forums when I can, which isn't very often. But I use it and try to spread it, too.
