The dark side of open source software is Stoned

,----[ Quote ]
| When rootkits are mentioned the things which come to mind are generally hackers, 
| Trojans, even Sony BMG. Now you can add open source software to the list with the 
| release of the first open source rootkit framework called Stoned.

Spice up your LUG!

,----[ Quote ]
| Finally, there's no reason why your LUG can't embrace the social networking
| revolution, and create a community on one of the many social networking
| sites. This has the advantage of being more media rich than traditional
| communication channels, and is usually more pervasive and immediate, with
| people keeping in touch on their mobile phones, for instance. This is worth
| looking at if the average age of your membership is on the lower side, as
| older folks seem to have an in-built cynicism towards the benefits of social
| networking. But whichever strategies you do take, the most important part
| about being online is that the website is kept up to date. Without that, it's
| worthless.

Lovable LUGgable: support your Linux user group

,----[ Quote ]
| Itâs true: LUGs arenât the same. Linux isnât brand spanking new anymore.
| Thereâs no need for meetings which merely introduce the technology over and
| over. This doesnât mean LUGs arenât relevant, but merely they have evolved.
