Linsider Launched

Posted by Hemos on from the cool-new-site dept.

We're featuring lots of business-related news, profiles for every major Linux company, stock information, content licensed under the OpenContent license, and much more. You can read our press release, or skip straight to the home page. " We don't usually post new sites, but there's been a lot of word going around about Linsider/Linsight and what its aim is. Post-LinuxToday, Dave Whitinger [?] was rumoured to be spending a lot of time working on Linsight and this -- and it looks like it was worth the effort.

    I'd just like to say that linsider isn't the only investment site focusing on linux companies. there are a few like OSInvestor, LinuxStockNews, and LWN's Stock Page, to name only 3.

    Obviously built in PHP, but anyone know what the back-end code looks like? Do they use an open-source PHP project like PHPslash?

    It would be cool if more OSS sites would publish their own source code, ala /. (or whenever Rob gets around to it ;))

      E. J. Wells developed the entire thing from the ground up, and we're working to release the code for people to use.

      Give us time - we just launched the site less than a week ago. :)
