[advocacy-discuss] OpenSolaris UG stuff

[Kristian Rink]

Folks;

maybe utterly off-topic, but just for the sake of it:

Something I also noticed about most of the NetBeans "fan gadgets" available
out there: What's the "target group" of this stuff? I mean, being in some
business conference or a cross-company developer meeting (where promoting
NetBeans, Glassfish, OpenSolaris, ...) _really_ would have some effect, I
can't show up wearing a t-shirt having "openSolaris" or "NetBean" printed
all over it. If wearing a shirt there, a polo shirt with a _decent_ product
logo / name printed, say, on the chest back in a _small_ way would be the
best to do there, maybe options even would be limited to, say, having a pin
attached to my jacket (what about a "NetBeans Cube Pin" or "OpenSolaris logo
pin" for these purposes), or having a _small_ logo patch placed at the back
of my notebook. No offense, most of the give-aways available to date aren't
bad, but for marketing purposes in a business environment, they're next to
useless.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Kristian
