Super great, amazing and impressive job, WELL DONE :D

WE DO need however to contact 3rd party. I trust that all of us had already
posted about StartUbuntu on our Twitter, Facebook and/or Google+ so that
was on the early days, now, we don't have much time left. 4 months will
fade away in a blink of an eye and we do need 3rd parties which are not
really involved with Ubuntu Communities. As I explained, any other 3rd
party that has even little bit of interest in technology.

Any 3rd party with lots of audience. 10,000 followers or more. The point is
to cover the world in few days, that is our task right now :)

I am counting ...

2 members have replied my email so far and promised to help.

I am waiting ;)
