We Proudly Use Debian GNU/Linux Fri, 05 Dec 2008 00:26:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Albert http://www.docunext.com/blog/2008/05/17/playing-nicely-and-benefitting-without-belonging/#comment-13277 Albert Mon, 19 May 2008 02:32:32 +0000 http://www.docunext.com/blog/2008/05/17/playing-nicely-and-benefitting-without-belonging/#comment-13277 Hi Russell, actually the link is prominently displayed on every page of the docunext blog right under the title. It reads: "We proudly use Debian GNU/Linux". I'm surprised you missed it. Judging from the server logs, the great majority of people who visit this site are "bump and run" visitors, who are searching for a random answer to a technical problem, and I hope the link shows my respect for the quality of the debian distribution. Personally, I had been using linux for about 8 years before I tried debian. I used RedHat and then Gentoo, and about two years ago, someone suggested Debian because of its stability, and I'm so glad to have found out about it. Also, I've strategically placed the link at the top of the page. I believe it makes a difference when it comes to seo.

It does seem unlikely that there is anyone who doesn't know that the web site is http://www.debian.org/ and yet has enough background knowledge to understand your post. So I don't think any readers are missing out.
