Even though I do not have any experience as a developer, I do love many of the applications I have been able to use through the open source platform. I also see a very bright future for some of the applications that will be available due to the open source platform. Freedom at its best!

I'm focusing on a few open source projects over this next three months. Finding some quality developers are looking for interesting projects, much more than even a year ago.

Twitter will be Master of the API when I don't have to give out my password to every third-party app that asks for it. Why can't apps link out to the Twitter site to collect my "ok" the way Facebook does?

I concur. As evidence we yielded a 37% revenue growth in q3 and 79% revenue growth in q4. I'm anxious about the new year, who isn't, but I think we're in a good position to continue this kind of growth.

I concur. As evidence we yielded a 37% revenue growth in q3 and 79% revenue growth in q4 with a 6 month young sales team. I'm anxious about the new year, who isn't, but I think we're in a good position to continue this kind of growth.

MindTouch is a great example. Aaron – you / Mindtouch should definitely benefit from the “re-rise”.

Ahem….MindTouch. MindTouch Deki happens to be the MOST popular open source enterprise collaboration platform. Ranked in the top 0.001% of open source projects in the World (SourceForge.net). Other than proprietary competitors, such as Microsoft Sharepoint, there is not a more popular collaboration tool. http://www.MindTouch.com

Perhaps more importantly is the Web Oriented Architecture (WOA) employed in developing MindTouch. Meaning, in part, everything is inherently a web-service – making extended the platform very easy. http://mindtouch.com/Technology

All I can say is that I cannot wait to start using some of this technology at work. Few of us that use technology daily (pun intended) know that the capabilities of our current state will see drastic changes over the next few years. Flash memory, mouseless computing, cloud base – I think everything we have been driving toward will soon go "public" and work will take on a whole new platform

Brad – great post and I think you nailed it… open-source + web are big this year and I'm betting that things that do open-source + web + social change are going to do some of the most innovative game-changing stuff of the decade.

Happy holidays to you and yours!
