Hi All, I dont know which is the best place to report it. The blog http://omgsuse.com/ has got all the spellings of openSUSE misspelled as openSuSE
Hah, that's me, a bad old habit from the old days of SuSE :) I've corrected the misspellings, I hope you guys can forgive me :)
Sure ;)
I guess I should take the opportunity to talk about OMG! SUSE! in general and ask for advice/opinion/criticisms/cookies/etc
Congrats for launching it! It looks like a good addition
I've been working on the concept with "d0od" the chap behind OMG! UBUNTU! (http://omgubuntu.co.ul), a very popular Ubuntu users weblog. Being an avid openSUSE user, I wanted to start working on an equivalent for the openSUSE community.
The rough concept is: a user-focused blog for openSUSE. My goal is to cover new releases, changes, package updates, etc from an openSUSE user's perspective (trying to avoid getting technical). Of course, the gratuitous showing off of openSUSE eye candy is a must as well :)
I noticed you're not on Planet openSUSE (http://planet.opensuse.org), would it make sense to aggregate it? How does your blog relate to what the weekly team does? I see some overlap there - which could also be a chance of working together...
As somebody pointed out in the comments on the first post [1], OMG! UBUNTU! and Ubuntu in general don't do KDE justice so there's also an opportunity to cover KDE desktop environments changes (by way of openSUSE) as well as XFCE and LXDE developments.
Any thoughts or suggestions? I am by no means a "marketer", I just love openSUSE as a comprehensive desktop and enjoy writing, so here I am :)
