Internet & Networking Last June a spin-off department of Red Hat, lead by desktop guru Havoc Pennington, announced Mugshot. Originally, Mugshot was in the midst of controversy whether it's a social networking application or not. Apparently, it instead is a "social networking aggregator". In order for this to work, access to third party data is a must.

And if the site is written in PHP, well ...


Good point! OS X, Windows, Gnome, and KDE all have bugs, and at least one app on each platform has bugs, so we should all stay away from C, C++, Objective C, C#, Python, Tcl/Tk, Perl, Ruby, Fortran, Javascript, XML, VB.NET, etc.

Also, I've seen bugs on webpages, so we should stay away from HTML altogether.

Everyone knows that poor programming means the language it's written in is flawed!

:D totally warranted post Adam; people point the finger at php, when they really should be looking at the developers of said sites.

Oh, and mugshot is Java. It only took three clicks to find that out, much easier than just presuming it's php and therefore full of holes.

But that's a whole argument I don't want to start.
