With Zorin OS next release not far away, I am happy to announce a special contest.

This contest is organised together by Zorin OS team, Linuxaria, Linux notes from DarkDuck and Buy Linux CDs.

Who can participate?

Everyone with a passion for Linux, and with some writing skills. If you’re good enough to compose a short e-mail to your friend, then you’re ready for the contest.

What you need to do?

Please write a short story about Zorin OS, or maybe just Linux in general.

Why do you use Linux? How did you come to the Linux world? What do you like here? What are you doing to promote Linux? Any of these, or maybe your own themes are good.

It would be better, if your post is about Zorin OS, but this is just “nice to have”.

The text you’re going to write should not be one-liner. Please be little bit more productive. At least 50 words, if you don’t mind.

Where to send your works?

Please e-mail them to [email protected].

When to send?

Any time until the 6 of june 2012.

What will you get?

Organizers of the contest will select winners, and they will receive:

  1. Disk with Zorin OS 6 Premium with all the attached support. Prize is given by Zorin OS team.
  2. 15 USD bonus at Desura or similar resource, as per your agreement with Linuxaria, who has given this prize.
  3. 10 GBP e-voucher for Amazon.co.uk site. Prize from Buy Linux CDs.
  4. CD with any Linux distribution of your choice. Prize from Linux notes from DarkDuck.
