April Fools day! :)

Postby viking60 » 01 Apr 2013, 09:58

It does not come free so we are forced to accept some adds here.

It will be in the header and in-between the posts. We have made some research here and it is clear that there are tons of people willing to announce here in Asia. Countries Like Pakistan Bangladesh and China have a clear interest So we hired an Chinese agency to place the adds.

Now this will not be popular everywhere - but as Sting would have said - The Chinese love their children too.
They have got to make a living and so do we....
We cannot pick and chose who will place their adds here but it will be most likely tech companies with money - like Microsoft - and the occasional textile product like Jerseys etc.

We will also be selling mailing lists - since they are handsomely paid for.

Look at it from the bright side: They will be supporting FOSS...

Heard about the Mandriva CEO who met Mark Shuttleworth?:

Mandriva CEO: terrible how expensive gasoline has become!
Mark S ; Yes indeed- what kind of car do you have?
Car?!? - I have a lighter!

As you'll notice, someone did not fall for it. Note the :mrgreen:.
