Copy paste and Bookmark

I am into Information technology. We copy and paste code lot of times from what is available freely. Once I was talking to a friend who was denouncing software proffessionals for copy pasting. Is copy pasting easy? Answer is yes, if you know what to copy and how to find it and where to paste it. It takes nothing to copy and paste it and a genious to find what to copy and where to paste and a smart proactive person to find what to copy in stipulated amount of time.


I rely on copy pasting instead of memorising everything. It saves time and enrgy and makes sure that there is no syntax error. I do customize the code. I book mark the sites which I use extensively for copying the code.

It is painful when I loose my bookmark, I have to start everything from the scratch. Google has gone one step beyond and now we can book mark using google bar. Wherever I go my bookmark follows me:)

Open Source

We need some sponsers who will support the open source products and project. It is important to get support when needed. IWhy will anybody support open source projects? If you are asking the same question as me, then ask JBoss. Apache supports lots of open source projects. Sun Microsystems has joined open source arena. IBM supports linux and open source. Go to sourceforge.net, you will find lots of corporate who support the hosting of open source. The reason being??

I am a techy guy who has little knowledge on finance. I believe it is because of demand and supply. When developers and Business wants open source products and greater control corporates try to provide the same.
