Street Scene 2004 Photos; SOSD Event

Doh! Yesterday San Diego Blog took the day off. Profusest apologies.

We return now by linking to the huge gallery from Sign On San Diego — Street Scene 2004 Photos.

In geekier news, there’s this event on Wednesday from the SDOSS: 09/01/04 6:30pm  Union Tribune’s SignOnSanDiego  is Open-Source “from top to bottom”:

SignOnSanDiego.com, the online operation of The San Diego Union-Tribune, is the most visited online media outlet in San Diego County, with 2 million unique monthly visitors. Our online publishing data-center operations rely almost exclusively on free/open-source software, utilizing a top-to-bottom open-source technology stack; the Plone content-management system, Zope Application Server, Python Programming language, and GNU/Linux operating system, as well as Squid, Apache, and MySQL. This presentation explores how SignOnSanDiego.com leverages open-source software at the upper-levels of the stack using Zope and Plone for content production and publishing.

“We are not just using an expensive proprietary application on top of an open-source base, we see open-source software percolating to the (well-polished) application level, and the Plone/Zope combo, we are using, is a pretty good example”.
