New Facebook API Provides Great Opportunity

Facebook Developers | Documentation

The Facebook Platform is a standards-based web service with methods for accessing and contributing Facebook data. We’ve made the methods as easy to understand as possible, and included full documentation to help you learn more.

Given the ongoing popularity of FB, would it make sense to integrate FB features into CALI?  Perhaps FB could provide the groundwork for some of our social apps.

Good Review of Ubuntu…at Law.com!!!

Maybe it’s time to consider Linux — or rather a Linux. There are more than a few flavors of this Unix-like open-source operating system in circulation these days (about 300, by one count). One of the commercially backed Linux distributions, Ubuntu, has become something of a darling of the OSS crowd, and it’s well worth a look. There’s a lot to like in the latest version of Ubuntu — and a few things to watch out for from an enterprise perspective.
