Finally, I've started my new Linux community, Hari's Linux Cafe as a way to interact more with the Linux community and get to know them better.
I'm sure many of you would ask me why I started "yet another Linux forum". Well, this is not going to be just another Linux forum, but I believe a Linux community with a difference. My vision for this site is that it should become a platform of Linux hobbyists, enthusiasts and experts to share on not just Linux-related stuff but interact as a broader community on more platforms than just Linux.
You will notice that I have started with just a small number of forums. There is a reason behind this. I don't want to over-emphasize the Linux aspect and try to imitate other successful Linux support boards. That's not the idea. Rather, the idea is to bring together Linux enthusiasts to interact on not just Linux but participate in serious non-Linux debates as well as indulge in light-hearted community chat. I'm sure many Linux fans have felt the need for such a forum where they can come together without necessarily having to talk Linux most, or all of the time. The idea was to start a broader "community" site of Linux fans rather than just a support forum for issues with Linux. The emphasis will be on the members rather than on the subject. I don't know about you guys, but I sure felt that on other Linux boards, the broader community feel was missing. So after long consideration, I decided to launch this site. Today is the official launch day. Feel free to register and participate in this forum!
