Hello, While fighting Microsoft for a while (http://idkn.blogli.co.il/archives/189), made me some ideas regarding a way to promote Linux and open source in Israel:
1. Opening computer clubs - When doing so, it is better to use the media to request a donation of old hardware etc... This is also a "free" publicity. 2. Lior Kaplan for example, helped (or still is helping) in a Olpan Olim, a request for help (again in the media) also provide the above. 3. Explaining at a hosting shows like at Channel 2 (6 with ...), how parents can buy in total a computer in 1,500 ILS, instead of 9,000 ILS, making more equal education for kids ... And the list goes on... Every such interview should also accompany with a request for donation to the Hamakor organization for helping out, and for money etc ... Also contacting some of the companies in the Israeli industry that uses Linux and/or Open Source to contribute money for commercials in few ways (Commercial channels/radio can be last in the list, and not the first). What do you think ?
