OpenOffice.org Marketing From The Java Updater


The Java updater asks me to update Java. So I update it and, what do you know? It looks like Sun is giving some neat little ad space for the open-source OpenOffice.org office suite. I'm glad to see that some people may see that when they update their Java and say, "An office suite for free?" Yes, OpenOffice.org is free, but you may be wondering... "What's the catch?" Well, just enter the coupon code "GREATBITBUCKET08" and get 75% off your puchase of OpenOffice.org!

Let's see... Free - 75% = Free!

Anyway, I'm really glad to see that OpenOffice.org can get a little bit more publicity. It's good to see that people can get a capable office suite for free. I'm not saying Microsoft Office is bad or anything. In fact, if I had the money, I'd probably purchase Microsoft Office. But, that's something to think about another day, especially since OpenOffice.org is only getting better and better.

You can get OpenOffice.org at, you guess it, http://www.openoffice.org/.

When I saw that last week during the Java updates on my many computers, I was very happy and excited to see OOo get more publicity. I use it and have switched many people over to it!
