“Go ahead and try a Google search for “Linux” in the
news feeds. In fact, try looking up “Linux” in any news search
engine and see what you come up with.“Notice a pattern yet? For some reason that seems to escape most

well, however generally it’s Ubuntu that shows up as most popular
in open source news these days.“This trend is even more severe among blogs and forum sites.
Clearly the Ubuntu way of offering Linux to the masses has caught
on to such a degree that it’s amazing when new users even realize
other distributions exist.”
