Open Source boosts Web 2.0

I have always been a heavy user of open source software - before I bought my macs I worked on linux only, running open source software or commercial (yes, I have always bought licenses too). I have always predicted a firm growth of open source software, and becoming major business, but I didn't know open source would benefit this much from the Web 2.0. It seems that Web 2.0 and open source go hand in hand, one boosting the other and vice versa.
The heightened level of interest in the open source model has lead companies to start looking for ways to add value to the process of open source development and distribution, in order to make money from it.()

Enough said, I believe. Open source has now been declared business. I think I need to start wearing a tie....
