Merlin's Diary

The UK's Online Body Mind Spirit Events Wizard

"In the last year we have created a dedicated space for inspirational events, [...] Local notice-boards only capture a small part of a potential market, online websites often contain a mass of information which is difficult to search through and e-newsletters are notoriously susceptible to ending up in trash/junk mail boxes! Disseminating and finding the information is clearly difficult for both organisers and audiences alike.

What we wanted was a powerful search tool where we could just punch in a term such as 'happiness' or 'meditation', give our postcode, and instantly get back relevant events complete with distance from our home. [...]  And so, [...], we set about creating the site you now find yourself on - Merlin's Diary. We hope you enjoy the experience and will help spread the word to your fellow MBS loving friends and family."

SynergyMX - Freeware and Open Source Software

"Freeware Defined: Software application programs that are free to use and distribute. Often, these programs are written by home programmers and distributed via the Internet at no cost and no future obligation to buy.
Open Source Defined: In general, open source refers to any program whose source code is made available for use or modification as users or other developers see fit. Open source software is usually developed as a public collaboration and made freely available."

Open Source Resources

"Free and open source software, also F/OSS, FOSS, or FLOSS (for Free/Libre/Open Source Software) is software which is liberally licensed to grant the right of users to study, change, and improve its design through the availability of its source code. This approach has gained both momentum and acceptance as the potential benefits have been increasingly recognized by both individuals and corporate players.

'F/OSS' is an inclusive term generally synonymous with both free software and open source software which describe similar development models, but with differing cultures and philosophies. 'Free software' focuses on the philosophical freedoms it gives to users and 'open source' focuses on the perceived strengths of its peer-to-peer development model. However many people relate to both aspects and so 'F/OSS' is a term that can be used without particular bias towards either camp."
