In case anyone missed it, Google has opened up Google Code... http://code.google.com/ They give away bits and pieces of open sources code.
I am being dumb, (I am marketing not techhie) can someone give me a 2 second summary of the benefits?
Like Mr Bill said, if my competitors release something I can use dont think I wont. For their sake they shouldnt rely on us not taking advantage of it.
It is used to provide real time data to software tools like Digital Points webmaster tools. You have to be a software developer to use or gain any benefit from this Google program of open source code that they are making available. Maybe some of the software developers on the forum can give some examples that us regular folk can understand
Google says that they like guys like Shawn and want to give recognition to those like him that use Google API to bring services to the community and produce software with Google code. This is a big deal for open source software developers guys. Can we hear from some of you on what can be done with this program? See article. http://news.com.com/Google+courts+open-source+developers/2100-1032_3-5623534.html?tag=html.alert I guess we should say thanks too guys. Thanks Shawn for your tools and for starting this thread.
