One other way to Promote Linux is to start with Schools, Cybercafés &
in an arborical way (you Know: from one to his friends to his friends'
friends ...) Then we should be aware of the good and the bad ways to
promote it.
1.
      1
        Many Windows users start with OpenOffice.org and Firefox.
Consider this approach particularly if that's how you started.

     2.
      2
      Choose a target user who can trust you and ask you for support
and help if things go wrong. Don't give out Linux discs at random.
   3.
      3
      Before they try it, show them it working. Ideally this will be
on your computer, otherwise a video or screenshots will do.
   4.
      4
      Find out their system specifications and ensure their machine
will meet the minimum specifications of the distro that you give them.
   5.
      5
      Consider your target user. If they love something that you know
they won't be able to do on Linux such as certain Windows-only games,
dial-up modem users, webcams, don't bother.
   6.
      6
      Know enough about Linux to know what you're talking about. The
first question will probably be what is Linux?
   7.
      7
      Anticipate users expecting reasons to switch to Linux. The
biggest strength of Linux for the average user is its resistance to
malware.
   8.
      8
      Know the answers to common myths and FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt).
   9.
      9
      Don't give them old unsupported obscure software. Where possible
give them new popular software.
  10.
      10
      First impressions count. Print a DVD cover for your distro
before you distribute it.
  11.
      11
      Consider helping the Public Software Foundation to get Linux and
Free Software into your local (school) library.
  12.
      12
      Organise a Software Freedom Day on 20th September.
