==How to Start an Internet Famous Business with Open Source Software==

The first talk I attended was presented by Mike Hoye and was titled How to Start an Internet Famous Business with Open Source Software. Hoye quit his 9-5 day job to pursue a business of his own. If you’re wondering what this business is, so am I. All I was able to pick up from his presentation about his start-up was that he developed 2, maybe 3, open source products with limited resources and did so with success. Hoye’s business was not the focus of his presentation and I think he spent a whole 20 seconds talking about it. The focus was on how open source software and the open source community gave Hoye the opportunity to ship a successful product with a modest amount of time and capital.
