From elsewhere: Linux: a social experiment

Linux advocate disguised as panhandler gives CDs away. Interesting social results: most people don’t read signs, and panhandling is fairly lucrative. <wry grin>

Would be tempted to do something similar if I also had a stack of Ubuntu CDs.

Or—evil thought!—sneak into Microsoft dev event with button that
reads “Ask me about what I geek out about” and a bag full of Ubuntu CDs… ;)

(Convert the world one geek at a time! ;) )

Open-source doctor one of Ten Outstanding Young Men for 2005

Posted by Ricardo Gonzalez on PLUG:

Congratulations to Dr. Alvin B. Marcelo of the
UP-Medical Informatics Unit for winning the
prestigious 2005 TOYM (Ten Outstanding Young Men) in
the field of Medicial/Health Information.

The TOYM award was given for his use of Open Source
Software in his community health based projects.

I think we now have a new “poster boy” for the open
source movement in the Philippines.

More power and success to Dr. Alvin Marcelo.

Awesome!
