Hello Folks

I thought this was quite good. Click the play button in the bottom left corner of the map. Keep an eye on China, must have had massive Internet growth in the last few years.

This is my first posting, so I will introduce myself. My name is Roland, I live in Paignton (South Devon) and am a full time paramedic student. I used to be a middle manager for a small IT firm (100-150 employees). My Linux experience is quite limited, some apache setup and a few other tinkerings. I have been using Ubuntu 9.04 for about 18 months now. I have primarily used it for word processing and surfing the net (both uni tasks). However, I have taken a few peaks-under-the-hood, as time as allowed. I *very* much like the power of the command line and am keen to learn more. I hope that, over time, this group can assist with some of that learning.
Best wishes
Roly

Great I'll have a look. Welcome to the list by the way, was good to meet you, albeit briefly at the LUG meeting on Saturday.
