Cartoonists Invited

Microsoft above the law



Summary: Adding more humour and visuals with the help or readers/contributors

WALLCLIMBER, one of our big contributors, was kind enough to make that graphic from the previous post. She's professional at that.



One reader who offered to hook us up with a cartoonist said that "if Boycott Novell wants to reach out to more individuals, it can use cartoons, because they can say a thousands words, without using words, or in the most simple terms…

"So, I have inserted a few on China, to help give you the idea, and what’s best, when individuals have fun seeing them, they will help spread the word too.

"Cartoons are very easy to understand, and should be encouraged more, especially on a blog, as lots of comments can generate higher volume o traffic, which is what you want, for more new readers to discover the website, right? Each day a new cartoon can be uploaded, making everyone want to go look and see the latest new developments and of course the cartoon!

“If attribution is preferred, we will add one too.”"Pictures are visual methods to share information…"

If anyone is willing to create a cartoon that advocates Free software, please send it to us for sharing (copyleft). We are always glad to receive and share funny or educational imagery, as we already did earlier this week. If attribution is preferred, we will add one too.

The same reader who suggested cartoons has also sent us material from the book "Barbarians Led by Bill Gates". It was written by someone who is close to Gates and we can quote portions of the book (fair use). This ought to be interesting!
