This is a good webinar provided by Techonline that deals with Using Open Source software like PHP, MySQL, (LAMP)… to develop commercially rebrandable software solutions. There is alot of buzz right now about Microsoft suing FOSS over patent infringements, etc. (i kind of doubt it will float but w/ microsoft’s attorney’s who knows…) Here’s some info about the Webinar:
Using a commercially successful embedded development suite as an example, this session focuses on the benefits, strategies, obstacles, and opportunities associated with using open source in commercial products. We’ll discuss the differences between protective source licenses (e.g. the GPL) and non-protective source licenses (e.g. the EPL); the due diligence required when integrating or linking open source with proprietary code; various legal issues, such as potential patent infringement; and why guidelines for using open source code in IT environments often don’t apply to commercial embedded products.

Wow, this is news to me. I am anxious to see how this will even look, much less what all it will allow you to do. I have owned the Palm Treo phones that ran the Palm OS and the Windows OS and I must say that I think that is probably the best phone that I have ever owned.

This is a good resource articled provided by the Web Hosting Industry Review detailing the use of the .htaccess file. We occasionally use the .htacess method to password protect directories and also to do apache redirects for a domain.

In case you haven’t noticed, Google has updated their analytical application and in my opinion is a whole lot more intuitive for site owners now to track their websites progress and traffic, it even has support for any campaigns that you might be running, which is pretty cool if you are into that sort of thing. If you are one of our clients and are interested in setting this up on your website let us know, the overall time to add this feature in is minimal in terms of costs, etc, but it will give you a good idea as to where your traffic is from both geographically and virtually.
