LinuxUser Magazine Columns
updated 31 October 2005
Since 2003 I've been a regular contributor to the excellent LinuxUser Magazine. The diversity of topics covered (from e-voting to Nanotechnology to open source cars) make it more like a replacement for the lamented Wired UK of old than a techie magazine. I can highly recommend it.
For a year and a half (2005-2006) I was a regular columnist for the magazine. The columns I filed are archived below.
- Column 1 - Open Source in Poland
- Column 2 - Transport Direct, off with it's head
- Column 3 - Penguin Inside
- Column 4 - Patents, licensing & FLOSS
- Column 5 - The importance of standards in VOIP
- Column 6 - Apple on Intel plus fake consumer electronics
- Column 7 - Security in email
- Column 8 - The downsides of technology
- Column 9 - Web 2.0 services, a way out of open sourcing software?
- Column 10 - Are basic computer courses supporting vendor lock-in?
