GLUE Introduces Free Membership and Improved Web Site
GLUE (Groups of Linux Users Everywhere), praised by both ZDNet and InfoWorld, is well-known in the Linux community as the premiere on-line resource for user group information.
GLUE features over 1,000 groups in 97 countries, and individuals looking for help and support from fellow Linux users can easily find their local group on the GLUE site. For Linux user groups looking to increase visibility and attract new members, we offer special offers and promotions for your members -- all free of charge -- just for listing your group on GLUE. GLUE members receive from the following sponsors:
Linux Journal: 20% off regular subscription cost, CD-ROMs, bumper-stickers, 2002-2003 Tux Calendar
TOLIS: 20% off all BRU product purchases
GeCAD: A free copy of the latest version of RAV AntiVirus
Racksaver: T-shirts(Some benefits available in North America only, please visit the GLUE web site for more information.)
GLUE also offers advice on starting a new group, trade shows, where to meet, and why you should join. A new addition is the GLUE Group-of-the-Month contest: each month we will choose the best group photo of a LUG and will send every member in the group (up to 50) a free t-shirt. (To enter, send your LUG group photo to glue@ssc.com.)
Linux Journal Sales Coordinator Christy Kyllo has assumed the role of GLUE coordinator, and can be reached via e-mail at glue@ssc.com.
