Really is our fault for not doing much 'think out of the box' like the folks from abiword. For all our google links we could have had some campaigns up on Google ads.

We did, at one point, a couple of years ago. A unnamed donor enabled us to have a slew of ads for OOo. Didn't do much, which I guess is the lesson of the Internet: it's a money drain for advertisers, funnelling cash to Google.

Then I guess the folks at abiword are more succesful raising advertising funds than us which is also another lesson to learn.

Huh? I didn't say it was ineffectual. OOo is very very popular and though there was an increase, it was not to me remarkable. But what prompts that commentary? Most people and groups actually look to OOo for marketing and advertising: we are effective.

Ok I most have missed something, what you mean that 'didn't do much'. You mean the advertising efforts or the donations itself.

Donation did a lot; advertising effort did relatively little, though it was measurable. The point: this particular instance of a Web advertising campaign is fairly unimportant.
