What Everyblock owes Knight after its open source success
,----[ Quote ]
| The Knight Foundation, as part of its efforts to improve
| online journalism, gave a $1.1 million grant for the
| launch of Everyblock in 2006.
|
| Everyblock used the money to build a GPL code base that
| aggregates local information for use by news sites.
| Here, for instance, is its recent report on my home zip
| code.

Linux indifference and hostility from âmainstreamâ technology broadcasts
,----[ Quote ]
| All we ask is that the mainstream tech media treat Linux as a serious
| alternative to Windows and Apple machines. Keep the negative attitude and
| venom to yourself. Fair and equal treatment, thatâs all.
