Tiny Core Linux On Digg Front Page

(1/2) > >>

bochiman:
Anyone should know about this interesting Linux distribution. On Digg Linux news, it has the chance to go further with the community help.

This is the Digg news: Maybe the smallest desktop-based Linux distribution, which requires only 10 MB free space on an USB drive, CD or an internal hard disk drive, Tiny Core Linux could give you a new experience and maximum Internet speed with a customizable X desktop and by running entirely in RAM. The Tiny Core Linux distribution is powered by Linux 2.6 kernel.

Please Digg it and share. I think it is the Tiny Core Linux moment.

Best Regards To The Community And Developers.

tobiaus:
very cool, although depending what you mean by "desktop-based" there are smaller distros. basiclinux will fit on two floppies.

at least one guest thinks it is "cooler" than tinycore (i don't,) but i've used it and it doesn't seem to even support the cdrom. i certainly do think tc gives you the most efficiency for practical use, but that's not easy to quantify.

bochiman:
Well, well. It seems that the article, Tiny Core Linux Has Just 10 MB In Size written on Downloadtube.com blog was indeed made popular not only on Digg, but also it was linked and republished in more languages on many websites of high quality.

People have seen the opportunities of Tiny Core Linux and ideas are still coming. We will monitor the changes and in the future, we hope more people will be interested of this distribution.

Nice it made it to Digg. Yet this article is mostly an obvious copy/paste from this site, screenshots of tc's "main capabilities" are all under Windows XP (!), and link to http://tinycorelinux.com doesn't come before more than half way in the post.

bochiman:
Dear Florian,

You have made copy paste here: http://florian.cauvin.free.fr/microblogging.shtml

We have published a story which made Tiny Core Linux popular around the web and not only for a day. Copy / Paste is in your opinion and the credits in the Downloadtube.com blog article were properly attributed to the official website of Tiny Core Linux.

You are free to try this experience with your own arguments: we thought that this is a Linux distribution which worth attention from the entire world.

In the same manner, we are also monitoring the development and changes of other Linux distribution, even you think this article is based on copy / paste.

On the other hand, if you have noticed in the screenshot there are shown the main capabilities of Tiny Core Linux. As far as I know, Downloadtube.com is the first website who published these screenshots in an original article, edited by its own editors.

The rest of websites linked their content to dowloadtube.com blog.
