Mark Shuttleworth Keynote

[lavj1518]

@shanecbryson it isn't about showing off or advertising, but congratulating etc. the difference between proprietary software and changing the world.

developers developers developers, developers developers developers, developers developers developers, developers developers developers, developers developers developers, developers developers developers, developers developers developers, developers developers developers, developers developers developers ... shit

[woodlandor]

I don't know about anyone else.... but the whole "Guh-nome" thing bothers me, I would think it would be pronounced like "nome" like gnome is pronounced.... but then again I'm an avid KDE user :)

[finnoncom]

Even with my puny training of 6 month in Business Economics I can see that this guy is a true business genius!

[shanecbryson]

@finnoncom Ha, not even close. Steve Jobs, now there is a true business genius.

[humphreybcdrumming]

43:46 he gives me and my project, UMP a shout out. I got applause!

[benjamina222]

Why really care about the Netbook system? They now make smartphones and portable game devices with more power than a typical netbook.

[Linux4ignition]

Netbooks will be a thing of the past very soon.

They are nothing more than cheap low quality laptops.

Why focus on that?

[ssj6akshat1234]

That evil clippy piece was epic

[ticogis]

Nice, shuttleworth is a visionary man.

[ruffmordor]

Awesome! Mark's a true visionary man indeed and he's got a great sense of humor.

[DreadKnight666]

Unity > gnome-shell.

[novelldesktop]

Good work Shuttleworth

[tad1073]

if

thunderbird = gnome-default-applications-pro­perties

mail-notification = thunderbird

[Srbjan]

great!

I can really see the potential for Ubuntu Light with unity to work well as a tablet PC solution in the future. Stripped down Ubuntu but not lacking functionality like the OS of the iPad.

[scouser73ubuntu]

Good things coming for 12.04 LTS I see, and that will only help people move into Ubuntu use from Windows / other OSes. A great keynote speech and presentation of Unity which enhances user functionality, something for everyone really.

[jwtalbot]

Brill... Lookin' forward to the next release!!!

[jeroeniskoning]

Briliant !

[frvfilms]

idk?? ubuntu is doing decisions that users dont want

[Baldurpet]

@frvfilms

Just— stop bitching.

Seriously.

[frvfilms]

@Baldurpet lmao, its feedback, its not my fault u have no option to voice ur opinion :p

[korwinblue]

@frvfilms not exactly feedback if you don't elaborate what decisions Canonical are doing that the "users" don't like.

[melalcoolique1]

It sounds very exciting.

[steigerjb]

the new interface may be good for the regular ubuntu, not just netbooks
