FSCONS promotion
Tuesday, September 30th, 2008 | FSCONS, Free Software, Software, conference, event, geek | No Comments
Everyone can help us promoting FSCONS.
I am adding two very subtle examples:
Gnome meeting yesterday
Saturday, September 27th, 2008 | Free Software, Gnome, Meeting | No Comments
I came to the place at 19.30 (always late?) and there was like 8-10 people there, including Anderas Nilsson (speaking at FSCONS).
Then Lennart from Wikimedia Sverige phoned me and asked me where we were and told me the Wikimedians (Wikimedia has a booth at Göteborg Book Fair) were coming over, including Lars Aronsson (speaking at FSCONS). They were something like 10 people.
Woops, enter Jeremiah Foster (speaking at FSCONS). Add to that Per Andersson (speaking at FSCONS) and his friends ….
… all in all, it was great and a lot of people!
