The term freelancing came into existence from Walter Scott's Ivanhoe describing a medieval mercenary warrior or free-lance. It connotes that the lance is neither avowed to any lord, nor it's available free of cost.

For a lot of people, the term "Web 2.0," ceased to mean anything real a long a time ago. For some, it never really meant anything to begin with it. As someone who writes about the so-called second version of the web for a living, I think I've held onto the Web 2.0 term as long as I could. But today, "Web 2.0″ has officially jumped the shark for me. That doesn't mean I'll stop using it - as a blanket term to describe the industry that I write about it can be helpful - but I have to admit that it has now become somewhat of a parody.

No, we aren't going to let you take a break from checking out new social-status services; especially not when a new one is bringing something actually interesting to the table. Rejaw, just launched this week, describes itself as "a new way to chat with your friends, family, and coworkers." Combining short, Twitter-like messages with instant updates via custom push technology, Rejaw may have hit the sweet spot at the intersection of dead-simple, web-based microblogging and conversation.

In this paper, we describe our findings from interviews with participants working in two relatively new consortia in the government sector: the Government Open Code Collaborative or GOCC, and the Open Source Software Institute or OSSI. For each case we consider six major questions: (1) How and why did these collaborative efforts begin? (2) What are their motivations? (3) How are these collaborative efforts governed? (4) What communication and collaborative infrastructure do they utilize? (5) What software do they focus on? and, (6) What is their current status? Our findings suggest that incentives, membership structures, stable paid staff, concentrated focus and attention to the creation and delivery of "value" to participating organizations are important factors leading to successful open source consortia.

The latest project by Stephen Wolfram is defined as the first "computational knowledge engine", something capable of answering factual question for you.

The unfortunate truth is that the term "community" is now so overly used and utterly misconstrued that it has become meaningless as a way of capturing the true essence of what it really is. It has now become a catch all phrase often used by social media strategists to describe an ideal that doesn't exist. It's become a presumptive description of customers or of end users in whatever form they come in, positioning them as already wanting to connect to a product line or a company. Many in social media end up contributing to this echo chamber, maintaining their standing in online discussions all the while causing damage to the concept as a whole.

Facebook is a wonderful example of the network effect, in which the value of a network to a user is exponentially proportional to the number of other users that network has. Facebook's power derives from what Jeff Rothschild, its vice president of technology, calls the "social graph"--the sum of the wildly various connections between the site's users and their friends; between people and events; between events and photos; between photos and people; and between a huge number of discrete objects linked by metadata describing them and their connections.

Security, speed, compliance, and flexibility -- all of these describe lighttpd (pron. lighty) which is rapidly redefining efficiency of a webserver; as it is designed and optimized for high performance environments. With a small memory footprint compared to other web-servers, effective management of the cpu-load, and advanced feature set (FastCGI, SCGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting and many more) lighttpd is the perfect solution for every server that is suffering load problems. And best of all it's Open Source licensed under the revised BSD license.

Our mission is to spur responsible adoption of social web tools by social benefit organizations. There's a whole new generation of online tools available - tools that make it easier than ever before to collaborate, share information and mobilize support. These tools include blogs, wikis, RSS feeds, podcasting, and more. Some people describe them as "Web 2.0"; we call them the social web, because their power comes from the relationships they enable.
