Ubuntu in one Minute
In Wednesday’s Jono Bacon speaks, a really interesting idea came up. That we should try and describe what Ubuntu is, but only in one minute.
This is my entry into the competition:

I hope you like it, it’s quick and dirty and it’s only 40 seconds instead of a full minute. But I think it gets my point across about ownership.

Ubuntu is like giving someone a hand and saying: “Come and join our world. The price is to be willing to be open-minded”.
Nice to ogg videos more and more coming
Interesting. A couple of things:
1) Can we correct our pronunciations to “Oo-boon-too” please
(If for no other reason than out of respect for the original language where it came from.) Reminds me of the early days when people called the kernel “Lye-nuks”
2) Being “mine” is not a differentiator. Many distributions based on the Linux kernel are “yours”, or could be if you wanted. The key differentiators for Ubuntu are ethos and community, in the local sense. No other can match it.

Where did you post the video?
You list a number of use cases, but as a content producer, you may want to consider also that you are able to produce using Ubuntu: lots of things allow one to browse / view / etc. Fewer provide strong environments for creation. Even fewer do not differentiate between “developers edition” or “artists edition” so that every user can create with the base product. Ubuntu may be yours, but your use of it is not limited to what you describe.
