For those who may still be wondering what opensource is all about, here is an interesting piece on the power of opensource in the context of Obama’s election win. Since I use opensource for both work and at home

  • OS = Linux (Debian and Ubuntu)
  • Web browser = Chrome, Firefox/Iceweasel
  • Email = Thunderbird/Icedove and (well, this is not quite opensource 🙂 ) GMail
  • Office = OpenOffice
  • Image processing = GIMP
  • Database = MySql
  • CMS = WordPress
  • …

I can certainly appreciate first-hand the versatility and comprehensiveness of opensource softwares.

If you have not done so, why not dip your hand and try something new today?
