WorksWithU Vodcast, Episode 1
Welcome to the WorksWithU vodcast, produced by contributing bloggers Joshua Chase and Nick Ali. Here are some details about this week’s video, plus some hints about where we’re heading next.
In this edition, Josh and Nick discuss recent Ubuntu developments — including the launch of Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope), plus some key Canonical initiatives and directions.
Josh and Nick are familiar names to many Ubuntu community members. Both are active in the Atlanta Ubuntu Loco, and they speak regularly with Canonical insiders as well as Ubuntu industry leaders.
Feel free to post comments. We consider the vodcasts a work in progress, where Josh and Nick take time out of their busy schedules to bring you the latest chatter from across the Ubuntu universe.

I agree about the community and I’m really looking forward to this video series!

Additive:
I like to see shows on Package Building (.deb) obviously , intermediate amp; Advanced Command line usage , Installation Scripting , General scripting advanced amp; to intermediate , Killer application comparisons , Compile you own show using Ubuntu command line installation , Launchpad fixes – find complicated issues on launchpad and then fix them.
Site suggestion:
Possibly add a social networking type content to this site , give folks logins that connect to their other Ubuntu centric sites with avatars for responses and article archiving for your favorite articles and how to’s.
Cheers!
Dallas: We can’t thank you enough for the feedback.
We’ve avoided the temptation to create deeper social networking links on this site because we want readers to be able to get in and out fast, post comments for all to see, etc. But we’re looking at some opportunities in terms of creating closer bonds/connections between readers.
I’d like to give a big tip of my hat to Joshua and Nick for taking the time to launch the WorksWithU Vodcast series.
As you may know, we’ve got our hands full running WorksWithU, http://www.MSPmentor.net and http://www.TheVARguy.com.
The only way to scale our sites is to work with world class contributors who share our vision for engaging content that drives reader loyalty. Josh and Nick certainly share that vision.
Please keep the constructive criticism and ideas coming.
