Do you mean that I should look up random contributors, find out where they work, and send a letter to their bosses that they should be promoted?

the /sites/ section is more like a glorified blogsite. forbes' contributors write about whatever in there, they even review games and TV shows.

I like IceWM and Window Maker. Both are easy to use. IceWM comes with Windows 95 clone GUI and Window Maker is different (similar to NeXT) but still just as easy to use.
