Open Source Living: a mecca for all things OS
If you like open source lemme hear you say "yeah!"
If you like open source lemme hear you say "yeah!"
Check out Open Source Living, a huge resource that lists open source software in many, many categories and offers a forum for discussions about open source products as well as other OS-related issues. Being community-driven, it continues to expand with more and more resources daily. Take a look and see if you can't help but bookmark the darn thing
And, in a bad budget year, may I make a humble suggestion that library IT departments take a look at their software expenditures each year and see where an open source product of sufficient quality, reliability, and ease of use (like Open Office) might make more sense than renewing those 200 licenses for Microsoft Office?

OpenSource and programs like Open Office are part of what brings the internet together. I really hope that universities one day all get together and use open source software such as this as opposed to wasting funding on expensive software products.
