Collective Intelligence
“The real heart of web 2.0 is collective intelligence which I have defined as harnessing the network effect to build applications that get better the more people use them”
- Tim O’Reilly
Open Source Software
Open Source Software is computer software that is available in source code form for others to study, change and improve the content.
The Open Source Movement
• Linux – a Unix-Based operating system used predominantly in servers
• Apache — a leading server software and scripting language on the web
• OpenOffice.org – an office suite software with word processor, spreadsheet, and presentation capabilities
Soundcloud
SoundCloud was established in August, 2007, in Berlin, Germany, by sound designer Alex Ljung and artist Eric Wahlforss. It had the intention of allowing musicians to share recordings with each other, but later transformed into a full publishing tool which also allowed musicians to distribute their music tracks
Disadvantages of Open Source
• Fraud and security e.g Emerald vs Linden Lab over ‘Second Life’
