| Where the Geeks Are Taking Us |

So I was at LinuxWorld Expo here in San Francisco a few weeks back, looking for news to bring to the Free Agent crowd. (It is a continuing pleasure to read the responses that flow in via e-mail with each new column. Please keep that feedback coming!) And you know what? I had to dig. I mean, really dig.
This is typical at the Expo. The big, in-your-face news--the stuff that generates press releases and press kits and tchotchkes, and flows out of garish, hypercolored booths--is almost always geared at big business. We're talking enterprise solutions, here. Clusters. High-availability this-and-that. It's all very interesting if you're a CTO or an IT manager--or if you're a journalist catering to those crowds.
