Nokia buys Trolltech, Sun buys MySQL, IBM endorses Ubuntu, the Asus EEE PC is a sales success and is featured almost everywhere, and so on. Open source is on the right track to get to the tipping point sometimes during 2008, the day when a VNU (very normal user) will decide to switch just because there isn’t any reason against doing it.

Blogging has never been so popular inside the OOo Community. During last week, Florian Effenberg - Marketing Project Co-Lead - has put together the OOo Marketing Blog, and John McCreesh - Marketing Project Lead - has doubled with the Marketing Planet, the aggregator of OOo related feeds in English.

I’m a contributor of the marketing blog, and the feed of this blog gets aggregated into the planet. There is a side effect, though: if I don’t pay attention, as it happened today, when I was carried away by the enthusiasm of having two marketing tools to play with, and I posted here (deleted) and there, and doubled here on the planet.

Apologies, I will improve my skills.
