money2004, the year of Intelectual Property (IP)this year is going to be about IP. not just sco vs therestoftheworld. thats is only the top of the iceberg. though it is going to be about the //GPL (and the lack of knowledge people have of it). OpenSource product end up in more and more proprietary software (hence: not the other way around as sco claims!) We have the case with the //mplayer (think windows media player on steriods for X on Unix) who's code was //stolen. now let me get this straight for all those people too lazy to read the GPL. OpenSource is NOT free, OpenSource DOES have a licence, OpenSource is not a cheap way of making a fast bug my stealing code and putting it into closed source software. You can build your cathedral in your bazaar, you are allowed to become extremly rich by selling OpenSource Software. But stick to the rules! Read //gorklaw.

digg | bookmark | cosmospredictions, blogging on tellyon drupal a node was posted regarding predictions for 2004. one of the entries was funny _and_ seriously; in 2004 a blogging tv show ala brigbrother wil be started. The Blogger Reality Show will take the world by storm. The concept will see //this comment. are you reading this, people from the -i-used-to-be-succesfull-endemol (//ad)?
be 12 bloggers locked away for 6 months, and the winner will be the one with the highest readership and GoogleRank. The runner up will have chosen to use Drupal as software powering the blog. i *really* do think that blogging will be the next "msn" (aka i.m.) in 2004 and that a tv show like this *really* will be reality by 2005. sco and ad
