A new year, a new decade, and a new issue #32!

admin — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 07:08:47 +0000

At the writing of this post, it’s new year’s for most of the world (and definitely will be by the time most of you read this). Not only is it a new year, it’s a new decade full of promises for the computing world and the world at large. I hope you’ve enjoyed our foray into Ubuntu and Linux for the past few years. Here’s to many more!

That being said, what better way to start off a new year than with a new issue of Full Circle?

Command and Conquer.
How-To: Program in Python – Part 6, The Perfect Server – Part 2, Installing Chromium (browser) and Offline Package Install.

note: if some readers got duplicate announcement emails, our apologies. the mailing list software had a few hiccups.

We have ads now?

The short answer: yes, but we’re doing strictly non-commercial, non-bought ad space.

The long answer: for a little bit, we’re going to be trying an ad trade with Ubuntu User magazine. We’re getting a full-page ad in their print magazine, they’re getting an ad in FCM, and we’re trading site links. Rest assured, FCM is not taking bought-for ads.
