Just to qualify my vote... I generally read/scan it every week, but if I miss a week, I'll read the back issues. It's a service that I'm glad exists... kinda gives me an overview of what's happening.

My thanks go out to the folks that put it together and/or otherwise make it available.

I prefer fullcircle magazine it caters for all ubuntu users. It is as good if not better than any Linux magazine you can buy its a monthly publication.
For those who have not seen it, look in 3rd party projects then fullcircle.
cheers.

I didn't know there was one. I appreciated all the hard work that devs and supporters of Ubuntu put into the project. All you guys are doing a great thing for humanity. I've use Linux for 5+ years now on 3-4 comps at home. I thank God that you people have done all this. My last hurdle is gaming, but even that has been growing by leaps and bounds thanks to the people that develope Wine. I guess those guys would be called the White hat hackers.

On the other hand, the Black Hat hackers have managed to destroy my online business. I don't think they realize how much they hurt the little guy in all of this. I went from making over 5K a month to nearly being on welfare. Doing web hosting. I hope their hacking community realized who they hurt when they do what they do. I cant feed my daughter, pay bills or do much else. That is the reality that they need to know.

Technology should be used for good, not bad stuff.
