Fight the dollar and centaur with linux!

Here is a quick graphic response to Mario's weapons of choice from Sunday's opening at ISTE.  I used free and open source graphic editing application The Gimp to create this image.  I was concerned that the "weapons" used to fight the obstacles edtech faces were all proprietary tools or closed knowledge.

We tell our students to collaborate with others, yet we miss the opportunity to model such collaboration by using tools that were created by groups of people whose main interest is equity, collaboration, and openness.  Instead, we have them use products of companies who try to squash such collaboration.  I think we can do better by using tools that are freely available and community built.

Please distribute widely.  And please feel free to edit, remix, mashup, print, share, etc.!

I couldn't find any good creative commons images to fit the bill of the dollar and centaur.  Anyone with drawing skills like to create one and collaborate on a better finished product?  Let me know @mrsenorhill on twitter.
