Comment open source? think "view source" (Score 2) 497
Ok, here's the deal with open source. The concept is very simple. If you don't know how to do something, ask someone else. Call them up, or look at the source code. I've been doing web design for about 5 years now (finally in industry) and I must say without the "view source" option, I wouldn't be HALF as successful. Open source is not a controversy, it is a necessity. Is it just me or is Microsoft the kid in kidnergarten that wouldn't let anyone have any toys? Guess what? The pc industry is everyone's. You can't buy everything and most importantly -- and we (linux users) are slowly learning everyday -- you can't buy us and you never will.
