Fwd: Start a Jam!

 

Hello Ohio!

How say you?  We've got barely two weeks to set something up somewhere
in our state.  What shall we do, *if anything*?

Hello Everyone in Ubuntu Land!

Do you enjoy Ubuntu? Do you live in a city? Do you live in a town?
Great! You now qualify to organize an Ubuntu Global Jam event! The
Ubuntu Global Jam is a really great way to help the Ubuntu project and
to meet amazing people in your community at the same time. What is it?
It's a gathering of (2 or more) people that enjoy Ubuntu.

I'll tell you a brief (and true) story: I moved to Vancouver (Canada)
four years ago and didn't know a soul here. I decided to change that and
to surround myself with fun and interesting people. After organizing
Ubuntu Vancouver events (including Jams) I can now happily say that I
have *hundreds* of friends and acquaintances that enjoy Ubuntu, use it
in their daily lives, and in some cases even contribute to it. And, best
of all, they're a short walk or ride from my home. Fun!

Sound like it couldn't happen to you? Well, it could. Be that gal or guy
in your town that throws a pebble into the pond and starts the wave that
begins the change. It only takes one person to throw the pebble and one
to notice.

The Ubuntu Global Jam will occur on:

    Friday March 1, 2013
    Saturday March 2, 2013
    Sunday March 3, 2013


Please go to the Ubuntu Global Jam event page and check the little chart
to see if there's an event in your town/city.

No Ubuntu Global Jam event near you? No problem! Create one.

Don't know how? Still no problem! *** Email me and I will help you.***

Congratulations. You've made it to the end of my message. Happy
Valentines Day my Ubuntu friends.

Cheers,
Randall
