FreeBSD – the unknown Giant

FreeBSD is a free, open-source and UNIX-like operating system. Though relatively unknown, it’s a performing and powerful work-horse, capable of coping with massive work-loads whilest remaining fast, ultra-stable and rock-solid. Blogging about FreeBSD and operating systems based on this versatile, safe and secure OS, I want to generate more interest in FreeBSD and its dependants. If you need a reliable, rock-solid and performing system for either your desktop or servers, consider FreeBSD!

Wanted: SpreadFreeBSD.org community leaders

Published on July 16, 2008 in FreeBSD. 1 Comment

SpreadFreeBSD.org has been around for a couple of months now. So far I’ve added most of the content together with Matt Olander from iXsystems.

However, now the site gets more and more visitors, we’re looking for community leaders, forum admins and content providers to make this site a little bit more interactive where BSD lovers can “meet” and find out more about BSD operating systems.

If you’re interested in helping us, please get either in touch with myself of Matt Olander (matt at ixsystems dot com).

Many thanks in advance.

Hence this website to try to raise more awareness of FreeBSD and operating sytem based on it... [more]

Why is this blog called "FreeBSD, the unknown Giant"? Well, it's what IBM has called FreeBSD in an article titled "Why FreeBSD". It's as simple as that:

The FreeBSD operating system is the unknown giant among free operating systems. Starting out from the 386BSD project, it is an extremely fastUNIX-like operating system mostly for the Intel chip and its clones. In manyways, FreeBSD has always been the operating system that GNU/Linux-basedoperating systems should have been. It runs on out-of-date Intel machines and64-bit AMD chips, and it serves terabytes of files a day on some of the largestfile servers on earth.
