 About Us

We thought you might have a few questions about who we are and what's here for you.

Who are we?
Your host and originator of the Going Linux Podcast is Larry Bushey. A Linux convert with a great deal of Windows PC experience, Larry also co-hosted the FourBitsWorth Podcast from 2005 through 2007.

Tom Chaudoir is your co-host. A Going Linux listener who who wanted to contribute to the podcast, Tom joined as co-host in August, 2007. Tom is a Linux newbie who asks lots of questions and gives the podcast the voice of a convert from Windows, who is building his confidence and competence with Linux.

Going Linux was co-hosted in the early episodes by Serge Rey, a former Mac and Unix user, experienced in Linux. Serge previously hosted the Linux Install Podcast. (Linux Install Podcast is currently hosted by Ed LaBonte and Ben Cheever.)

Why listen?
Whether you are new to Linux, you are moving from Windows to Linux, or you are thinking about moving to Linux, this podcast (formatted like an Internet radio show) will provide you with some valuable information and advice that will help you in "Going Linux."

What should you expect?
Practical, step-by-step instructions. We will try to keep the podcast to a maximum of two main topics per episode. As much as possible we will describe how to do things using only the graphical user interface (GUI). We will try to steer clear of the "geeky" command line unless it is the only way to do something, or if it is significantly simpler than using the GUI. Listen to our NEW promo to hear more:

How frequently will we release new podcast episodes?
We currently create two episodes a month. We release Listener Feedback episodes on about the 5th of each month, and User Experience episodes on about the 20th of each month.

In the User Experience episodes we take two months to cover a topic. In month one we cover a general introduction to a topic, including areas of interest to switchers from other operating systems. During month two we cover the topic from more advanced perspective. For users of Linux trying to build their confidence and competence with the Linux operating system and its applications.

Between User Experience episodes we cover Listener Feedback. In these episodes we answer listener questions and provide additional tips on using Linux and its applications.
