Thanks, Big-Ups & Arse Kisses
There are too many people to thank, so if you aren't on the list, get in touch, give me a load of verbal, and I'll make sure your name & address appear here. I'm not just thanking people, I'm taking time to show my appreciation for anything which has inspired the page directly, or indirectly.
- Google
Google is the dog's bits! Need I say more... You all know Google. Go use her. - Sites4Biz.co.uk
I owe everything I know to these guys. - Ubuntu / Xubuntu
"Ubuntu is a community developed, linux-based operating system that is perfect for laptops, desktops and servers. It contains all the applications you need - a web browser, presentation, document and spreadsheet software, instant messaging and much more."...
And that's before you start talking about the free online linux gaming community or powerful desktop enhancements like Compiz-Fusion ( aka compiz / beryl ). - Ubuntuforums.org
Ubuntu is a community developed, linux-based operating system that is perfect... See if I'd have written it, that's all it would say!! OK it's far from perfect, but with a little help from it's community, you can customise your Ubuntu to the point where describing it as anything other than perfect, would simply be an understatement. The community at Ubuntuforums.org turned me from a know-nothing Windows Junkie... to a fully fledged, Linux Salesman!!! Well... I suppose Linux being free makes me a preacher?!? Enough ranting... go get it... boot it up on that old AMD-K7 you got collecting dust under the stairs... then go become a part of the most wonderful community I've ever experienced. - Youtube (especially Youtube!)
I know some people have mixed opinions of Youtube... "Video's of Idiots being dicks" was one description I heard on TV. Now fair point, there is some crap on there... but there are also some absolute gem's waiting to be ogled. A few nights ago, just seconds after a conversation concerning Going Live from the 80s and early 90s... I was watching Trevor and Simon swing their pants... just like when I was a wee-nipper growing up in The Potteries.
