This page lists open source applications written by PlusNet staff and released to the Community.

Currently we have two applications available for download which are both Wordpress plugins:-

Flickr Thumbnail Photostream Wordpress Plugin - Randomly selects from a maximum of 500 photos on your Flickr account and displays them on your blog, without using an RSS feed.
Twitter Wordpress Plugin - Have multiple Twitter accounts displayed on your blog front page and a Wordpress page to support it.

These open source applications have been available to outside world for several months now and have been spotted in use as far afield as South America.

PlusNet has a strong tradition of using Open Source software to power the business. This website, for instance, runs WordPress, SMF, Apache, PHP, MySQL & other software - all open source. Here we hope to show our gratitude and repay the Community in some small way.

I'm still watching this space (mainly because it is so prominently advertised on the community site.) Twelve months have passed and you have to start wondering quite how much tidying these items are being given before they are released. I wonder if events will render them useless before they have seen the light of day, like the mobile phone trolleys of 1982, or the 1500 Free-Mandella t-shirts I have in the attic.

Good things come to those who wait. The impatient, just get frustrated

Yes please be patient, we do plan to release some more open source applications.

We have been very busy with various essential projects recently that require our immediate attention, but rest assured we haven't forgotten about the open source items.
