Open Source Developers at Google

File systems provide one of the most familiar interfaces end users know. Since implementing a traditional file system is extremely complex and difficult, presenting information seamlessly through files and folders has typically been limited to a small set of select programmers–often kernel hackers who develop at the lowest layers of a system. The MacFUSE mechanism breaks this barrier on Mac OS X by doing all the in-kernel hard work once and for all and leaving to the developer only the file-system-specific logic, which can be implemented as a regular user-space application. MacFUSE, with its simple programmer-visible API (same as the Linux FUSE API) and multiple language bindings, almost trivializes the process of making anything and everything appear seamlessly as a set of files and folders. You can use it to blur the line between the Macintosh Desktop and the Web. In this talk, you will hear the story of MacFUSE from its creator.

How do I move Ubuntu to a new partition?

I have a Dell Insipron laptop with windows vista. I used "wubi" to install Ubuntu onto my computer but it installed it in windows. I want Ubuntu to have its own partition and not be in windows. I have already set up a new partition but i dont know how to move my ubuntu to it. Should I just use windows explorer to transfer the ubuntu folder to the new partition or is there a procedure for it?

How to earn money through open source software?

I know all the positives of open source software, but what I am asking is this. Is it possible to make money out of it? If yes, how?

If it isn’t possible, then can we hope for a future where all software will be open source? I doubt there will be many people wanting to "work" for free. Would it attract less people to software development? How will it affect software companies?
