Promoting Linux to over +6000 people.

Introduction

Linux an open source operating system which is widely known and currently the most used operating system. As an operating system, Linux is software that control all other software in a computer, receiving requests from those computer programs and transferring reports back to the computer's hadware. Linux is a basic a an operating system like example, windows 7, it act as a manager for other software and controls communication between hardware and software programs of the computer. I choose to promote linux because linux has a more better graphical interface than other operating software and would be effiecient to other users out there. The promotion was carried out on facebook with the aid of a promotional ad.
