Getting the word out

Sometimes we write blog posts that are of interest to a general audience -- not just existing OpenHatch blog readers, but broader communities. So here are ways we can reach those communities.

Places where Linuxy beginners hang out

Online magazines that might care, and who to talk to

 * Joe Brockmeier might be willing to write for LWN.net
 * Ruth might be willing to write for opensource.com (but is happier if one of us just writes)
 * Kjerstin Johnson seems to be interested in writing about women in open source: See: bitchmagazine.org profile/kjerstin-johnson
