Coundown To Cool

I have a few exciting Ubuntu related things to talk about in this post, so, without further ado…on with the good stuff. Mmmmm….

Hardy Countdown

Like with the last release, we have produced a rather cool countdown doobry that you can put on your website that counts down each day to the glorious day of wonder that will be the Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron release day. It looks like this:

To add it to your website, just plonk this line of code on your page:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.ubuntu.com/files/countdown/display.js"></script>

Simple as that, and you will be doing your bit to help spread the good word of Ubuntu. :)

5-A-Day and Teams

With the on-going rollercoaster of fun that is 5-A-Day, we now have Team Support added as part of the grandiose plan. This means that your LoCo or other team can work together and become Bug Royalty and show off how much you are contributing to Ubuntu. Our excellent 5-A-Day tools make the whole thing as easy as cake, and you can see the current team leaderboards over on this page.

Kicking arse is fun, kicking arse together, is oodles of fun. :)
