Yesterday, I walked around campus with my Ubuntu shirt on, going to 2 classes over the course of 4 hours. During that time, I met 2 people that stopped and said “nice shirt!”, who also used Ubuntu, and were interested in the NJ LoCo team.
Therefore, what I think I need to do is wear as much Ubuntu propaganda I can — an Ubuntu shirt every day, an Ubuntu hat, a bumper sticker that says “Honk if you like Ubuntu! (Also go to nj.ubuntu-us.org)”, maybe even a huge button on my shirt that says “ask me about Ubuntu”. Around 65K people should be using Linux in New Jersey at the moment, so hopefully we’d have a very large LoCo team in a short time span.
Also, as a result of some annoyance yesterday, I wrote a rather long rant about why I hate most commercial VOIP providers. I think I’ll hold onto that until I’ve culled it into being “Informative” instead of “tearing off faces and using them as hats”.

Someday I will write an article saying that a man could live with only three shirts!
And it really works… Many people come to me and say: “what’s ubuntu?”

I need a Kubuntu or Ubuntu shirt. Right now my shirts consist of openSUSE, Fedora, rPath, GPLv3, and KDE. Out of all of them, the GPLv3 is the only one that gets questions due to the whole “Free as in freedom” slogan that is fairly large on the front. I should just design a couple of shirts on cafepress and order some. The current selection of shirts on there are rather boring. I did have one Ubuntu t-shirt, and the only comment I got was “I love Mark Shuttleworth, he is f’n hot!” from some girl. I talked to Mark, and his response was “I need to get to Chicago”
So, I need more *buntu shirts, the chicks love it!

That’s an ingenious idea. I’ve got a few geek shirts, but I think that a bunch of the US LoCo teams should pitch together to get some for events. I think it’d be a great way to help promote Ubuntu.
