The Creative Librarian is a hub for matters important to librarians/information scientists of today. There is a definite lean towards electronic issues, however it isn't restricted to only those. Hopefully this site will also be useful for informing non-librarians on these issues as so many of them affect us all.

BusinessWeek Online Open Source Issue

BusinessWeek Online: BW Magazine has devoted an entire issue to Linux and Open Source software this week.

Two paricular favorites of mine are “Next from Open Source: Killer Apps?” and “Programmers Are Like Artists”.

The first discusses the open source applications that are now being built, including corporate software using open source bases that don’t require users to buy liscenses from Microsoft or Sun. The second looks at the people who participate in open source and why it works so well.

These are definately interesting reading for anyone involved with the technology aspect of an organization.
