TechIQ: 10 Open Source Companies to Dominate 2008
TechIQ, which focuses on the VAR IT channel business, has identified the top 10 open source companies they expect to succeed in 2008. It's a good article and although it includes some obvious choices, it also includes a few well-thought out surprises. So it's not your typical end-of-year round up. This one has some creative thinking behind it. I think there's a lot of potential for VARs to get behind the open source movement and help customers with implementations as well as integration of open source offerings.
(Disclaimer: I admit that I blushed to see MySQL in the list. But I would have posted this article regardless.)
