After the great success of last year’s video contest, the Linux Foundation has announced this year’s competition:
SAN FRANCISCO, February 5, 2010 – The Linux Foundation (LF), the nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating the growth of Linux, today announced the 2010 “We’re Linux” video contest. The contest seeks to find the best user-generated videos that demonstrate what Linux means to those who use it and inspire others to try it.

The submissions should aim to inspire people to use Linux, create conversations among the public, and convey the power and ideals of Linux.
