<p>A few months ago, I wrote a small article for
|
|
<a class="reference external" href="http://programmerfish.com/">ProgramerFish</a> that was
|
|
<a class="reference external" href="http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/03/17/2235215">featured on SlashDot's Front Page</a>.
|
|
It was amazing. Within hours, my post had thousands of views and
|
|
hundreds of comments. People both loved and hated the idea.</p>
|
|
<p>But what made
|
|
<a class="reference external" href="http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/03/17/2235215">my post</a>
|
|
so popular? The fact that I showed people how to run a very popular
|
|
piece of proprietary software in Linux. And this made a very large
|
|
number of people very angry. Why though? Half the users of linux
|
|
are openly against proprietary software.</p>
|
|
<p>But Certainly software is just a means to an end, not and end
|
|
itself.</p>
|
|
<p>They failed to see the point. All they cared about was letting
|
|
everyone else know how much they hated my idea.</p>
|
|
<p>I inadvertently started a mini-controversy. And it got attention.</p>
|
|
<p>Sometimes the best way to be heard is to say something people don't
|
|
like to hear.</p>
