Hi, 2 days ago Angie Byron, the Drupal community manager, started a meme on twitter called b4drupal. Lots of people have since tweeted with that hashtag, and the result shows some really interesting insight in why it is so great to be part of a FLOSS community.
https://twitter.com/#!/search?q=%23b4drupal Like "#b4drupal I was just a geek who knew a little code. I still only know a little code, but now I know 1000s of other geeks who know diff code!" "#b4drupal i had never been out of the country, and i had a lot fewer opportunities. it broadened my horizons and made me a better person." (from SA) "#b4drupal I was buried in a small country with small dreams. Now I walk the world freely and can dream bigger." Throwing out your own custom tools and replacing them with a community is a real smart thing to do. It also makes you much happier, and, eventually, more succesful. -- rgds, Reinier Battenberg Director Mountbatten Ltd. +256 758 801 749 www.mountbatten.net http://twitter.com/batje http://twitter.com/mapuganda
