This week everything is free
Everyone (who already haven’t) needs to read Chris Anderson’s article about free in Wired (while you at it you might as well read this one about 37signals).
Free seems to be the theme of the week, Jonathan Schwartz also had a post explaining the MySQL acquisition in detail, where I found this quote from MySQL CEO Mårten Miklos:
the spectrum describing the marketplace spans those with more time than money, who form the user and developer communities around free software; and those with more money than time, who purchase commercial support contracts typically in more mature enterprises. To win in the long run, you have to win on both sides of the spectrum - with the same product.
The only thing not supporting free is that Google is down 20% the last 30 days…
