Again I am happy to announce, that Berliner Fenster, the company behind the Berlin metro tv advertisement system, viewed by approx. 1.5 million people a day, was so kind of providing Ubuntu and Ubuntu Berlin with a spot for the release of Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope and the release party hosted by Ubuntu Berlin at c-base:

If you cannot see the embedded spot, click on this link.

The spot runs for three days, showing Ubuntu to a remarkable amount of passengers.

Please note: The background image is from Marvin Kubiak, you can find it among other interesting Jaunty background images on:

Happy release!

Ubuntu Hardy backgound guerilla marketing

Did I already mention I really like the default background image for Ubuntu Hardy Heron? It is called „Warty Final“ (confusing name scheme) and was created by Feta Kuti. It’s a new fresh style (correct me if it is older and I’s always missing it) apart from all those water-chocolate-thingies (which we have seen enough, haven’t we?). I already got asked about the background from people standing behind me several times. „Warty Final“ already enhances some Windows backgrounds. Ubuntu Guerilla marketing in an artistic way. Nice work!

[update]
A comment by user AshCroft (thank you!) stated that Feta Kuti is an „Afrofunk/Jazz Saxophonist whose music was some of the inspiration for the heron and was chosen as the name for the art submission“.
