42 day widget

Canonical

on 11 October 2010

This article is more than 14 years old.


Yesterday we successfully released the new versions of Ubuntu family. As you all know, yesterday was such a special date which occurs every 100 years: 10/10/10.

Since 101010 is 42 in binary, and Ubuntu is our 42, we couldn’t help to take this date very seriously.

To celebrate this special event where hopes, people and bits get together, we created a little widget that you can easily embed on your website (more pictures on the way):

For more info about it and how to use it, please visit this page.

Enjoy!
