“In my last post, I was overflowing with praise for the value of
Ubuntu for the non-profit world and said I’d discuss ‘how Ubuntu
works’ in this entry. Well ‘how’ is beyond my technical expertise
and is undoubtedly a complex dance of 0s and 1s and static
electricity. What I meant was a little less technical and more
practical… just the joy of using it. After working for years in
social services, the concept that software should be free, that
people the world over should be able to have access to a base level
of technology that will level the playing field for communications
and potentially e-commerce is a value I share. I once set up a
voice mail system for homeless people to maintain communication
with their families and physicians based around this philosophy.
This is great stuff…!”
