summary - open source is cool!
sometimes it’s not free… there might be a licensing cost
still need hardware and time
advantages: change and expand on the source code if you want to, offers an active developer community - very nice!
Foundational Software:
apache, tomcat - another java-based web server
php, perl, python, ruby - open source programming languages
mysql and PostGres - more robust
Content Management:
Drupal - weblogs.ucalgary.ca - for the students
Plone - Requires Zope application server - stony brook suny runs on plone (health sciences site)
Textpattern - much simpler, fewer features
Bloging Software:
wordpress - probably best-known (LITA’s blog runs in wordpress)
WordpressMU - mu.wordpress.org - alpha stage, multiple blogs
or you can do a wordpress farm to run multiple blogs…
Movable Type - create multiple blogs with multiple authors (UHouston uses this) - another university runs thousands - mt is very scalable
Wiki software:
- mediawiki, PHP Wiki, Pm wiki - usc aiken gregg-graniteville library - runs on a wiki…
maintenance
awstats, w3c link checker, log validator - checks to see if your HTML is valid
other tools
Nvu, opensourcewebdesign - free code
tinymce.moxiecode.com - wysywyg html editor - open source, incorporate into your site. It looks like word. It can be incorporated into a CMS
htdig, Lucene - full text search engines written in Java
Furl and Wikipedia both use Lucine… hmm…

I want to search source code of a web application about library topic in asp.net.Can you help me?
Unfortunately, not much. But there are countless asp.net discussion boards - that’s where I’d go first.
So go to Google, and search for something like this:
“asp.net “discussion board”
Hope that helps!
