From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

To add some additional constructive criticism, consider re-branding your blog as a personal journey blog, with posts that recount your experiences with different types of software and operating systems. Include your preferences! What didn't you like? What did you like? Which did you choose after trying them all?

Titles like What is the Best -- For You? give the impression that the article will be detailed, helpful, and technically oriented. Try instead, something along the lines of IceWM, OpenBox, and FluxBox: My First Impressions. This will also make the spelling errors and poor phrasing much more forgivable.

But, as @Helix mentions, include screenshots, configuration files, and even a pros and cons list.
