All A-Twitter about Open Source
,----[ Quote ]
| Twitter loves open source.

| [...]
|
| In a sense, this is a non-story: after all,
| does *anyone* these days not use open source
| for these kind of massive, rapidly-growing
| sites?

It's not just Twitter
,----[ Quote ]
| A recent Washington Post story observed that
| Twitter loves open source. Twitter's not the
| only ones. Most, if not all, social networks
| are built on top of Linux and open-source
| software.
|
| When the writer wrote that Twitter loves open
| source he wasn't exaggerating. He was quoting
| from Twitter's About Open-Source page. There,
| Twitter states that, "Twitter is built on
| open-source software-here are the projects we
| have released or contribute to."

Twitter Loves Open Source: Just Not as Much as Status.net
,----[ Quote ]
| News is making the rounds that Twitter has put
| up a directory showing all the open source
| projects it loves, which in real terms means
| the projects that Twitter contributes to. It's
| an impressive list of projects, including
| cachet, its Java-based text-processing
| software for handling Tweets, contributions to
| several Ruby tools, and other major
| contributions. Of course, notably absent is
| the actual platform that runs Twitter itself â
| so the love only runs so deep, apparently.
