    Linux For Teenagers

    Hi
    I'm thinking of making a linux distro especially for teenagers and older kids! Does anybody have any suggestions.
    Which desktop environment should I use?
    How can I make it appeal to teenagers?
    Any suggestions on programs that should be included?

    teens like to talk on faceplant sites, gaia etc..

    they also like games, good luck with that.

    I'm a teenager and I use Fedora, but that probably isn't helpful at all to you.

    Isn't this the the first thing that should motivate you to create a Linux Distro for the teenagers?

    Just curious... why do the teens need a separate Linux Distro? What makes you inspired to create such a distro only for teens?

    I was 13 when I swapped to ubuntu. I really see no point in having a linux for teenagers, but I can't think of a smartass comment, so bye.
    I had to do it.

    I'm 15 and I do not play games, I am sure that teens that are really interested into Linux are not game addicts like the other ones.

    Eh, speak for yourself. I just balance the two by making my games work on linux.
