Hi All,

I have something I need to write and was considering of using a blog. It is an inspirational/constructive piece. The intended audience is linux users.

Can anyone recommend one (prefer no cost, hehe)?

From what i have seen here lately it seems that more people who use Linux are more interested in discussing the shortcomings of Windows than the advantages of Linux.

I'd check out the testamonial part of these forums if i were you.

May I gently suggest that perhaps BSDFreak's response was a bit over the top. It has not been my experience that Linux users are necessarily more likely to discuss the shortcomings of Windows over the strengths of Linux. I am sorry this has been his perception. I have also noticed that he tends to be a bit extreme in the expression of his opinions, so maybe we need to read his comments through a filter of some sort. Now to get back on topic.

For the greatest potential audience, although they won't all be Linux users (large numbers of the readers are, though) I would suggest one of these two:

http://slashdot.com
http://digg.com

If you are looking for something more intimate you can post here, in the community chat section. I'm sure others will have good ideas to add. In any case, please post a link. You have piqued my interest...

Thanks All!

Will check out digg. I didn't realize anyone can contribute to Slashdot. I will both of these out today and get it poste, and post the link here.

Wish me luck!!! hehe
