Get Paid To Use Ubuntu (UK, This Friday only!)

By , Published January 26, 2010

The Canonical design team are looking for volunteers in the London (UK) area to participate in user testing.

Testing will take place on Friday 29th January, during the day, and will extend all through the week.

The team are going to be focusing heavily on testing Empathy, so are keen to hear from people who use and do not use Empathy. IM-a-holic? Get involved! Can't wrap your head around Empathy? Get involved as well!

Contact iain [at] canonical to get more information on this. Wanna know the best part? There will be a €œpaid incentive€ for volunteers, so if you've got nothing better to do this Friday go get paid for using Ubuntu!

        I propose we all have a “Pay d0od’s train fare/petrol to London” fund!

    It’s good that they focus on empathy, imo it needs a lot of work.

      Agreed. First thing I did when I installed Ubuntu was to replace Empathy with Pidgin,better ui imo !
