Description
I didn't even know brainstorm existed until I ran across it in an article on a techie-news website recently. I have been using various versions of Ubuntu/Xubuntu/Kubuntu since Dapper Drake was brand new.

There are a lot of people that know about the site already, but I think that we could get much more feedback if more users were aware of the site.

Maybe upon first time running firefox, konqueror, or what-have-you, an extra tab could open with links to things such as brainstorm, ubuntu help forums, etc. Much like firefox opens a new tab upon each update informing users of what's new, etc.

There are Ubuntu related bookmarks in Firefox, so I think bookmarks are the right place to add it.

I always delete all bookmarks on a new firefox first.

same with me. I never used to look at them anyway, so I made a habit of deleting most stock bookmarks.

For starters Brainstorm needs more prominent links from the main Ubuntu.com website, which at present makes no mention of Brainstorm at all. Sometimes I just cant believe how inept things are relating to Ubuntu, can you imagine a proprietary software company not bothering to link to their new flagship community website from their main website?
