Forkable Linux Radio Ad Now On the Air In Texas
christian.einfeldt writes "Everyone is familiar with the Linux video ads created by IBM, Red Hat, and Novell, but until recently, there have not been any professionally backed forkable radio ads. Now, Austin-based Linux advocate Ken Starks has obtained the services of a professional radio talent in creating a high quality voice track, which can easily be adapted by local providers of Linux computer services. The raw material (mp3, ogg) addresses end-user frustration with Microsoft Windows malware, and promotes Linux as a more stable alternative. Starks hopes the raw material will seed pro-Linux ads across the US, and he offers his own final product as an example of how the raw material can be remixed with music. He has released all of the raw material and final work under the Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license, and has waived the Attribution requirement in his blog. Starks's provocative ad is currently on the air in the Austin market during the popular talk show of Kim Komando, who just happens to be a Microsoft Windows enthusiast."
...even Wall Street have been using: Linux!
That may not be a positive selling point these days.
It's NOT me! It's the meds! I'm on 1000mg of Fukitol.
Well, it was not Linux that crashed on Wall Street.
The Tao of math: The numbers you can count are not the real numbers.
Well it makes perfect sense. If you want normal people to trust something, you have to make it sound like a scam.
