Ubuntu, a popular open source operating system has a new sister site that called Ubuntu Brainstorm. This is a site preoccupied the Digg ideas where users determine the hot stories will go to the front page, but this time, it’s not the hot general stories, but the hot topics surrounding Ubuntu. On the Ubuntu Brainstorm, you’ll read all those stories that posted by Ubuntu users, from technical issues, wanted features, future direction to the know-how that most of the Ubuntu users want to learn. I think most of the questions or issues that posted there are that Ubuntu can’t afford to say ‘No.’ Like this one, the WiFi issue, as I experienced with my friend, it’s indeed not easy for a beginner to configure the WiFi connection. Unlike Windows, you just install the driver, the system will automatically detect the connection for you.

I like the purpose of this site, in spite of the idea was inspired by Dell IdeaStorm. If Ubuntu managed to take advantage from the sincere ideas posted by its users, it won’t be far behind Windows or Mac.
