To Tove and Patricia, Daniela, and Celeste. I always wanted to be surrounded byyoung women, and you made it so. To Tia and Kaley. Boy do I fee! blessed. This wouldn't qualifyas acknowledgments without thedropping ofsome important names, so here goes: we acknowledge our editor, Adrian Zackheim, who caved in to our every demand; Erin Richnow, theHarperCollins assistant editor who was more on top ofthisproject than wewere; our agents, Bill Gladstone of Water side Productions and Kris Dah! ofICM, who couldn't have been speedier in the forwarding ofour checks to us; Sara Torvalds, who hasthe best backup memory on theFennoscandia peninsula-and operates in three languages-and William and Ruth Diamond, who read theoriginal manuscript and kept repeating, "N,0, really, it'sgood. "

My heartwas in mythroat when he was growing up: How on Earthwas he going to meet any nice girls that way? -Anna Torvalds

Introduction: Post-Its from a Revolution Duringthe euphoria ofthefinal years ofthetwentieth century, a revolution washappening among all theother revolutions. Seemingly overnight, the Linux operating system caught theworld's attention. It had explodedfrom thesmallbedroom of its creator, LinusTorvalds, toattract a cultish following of near-militant geeks. Suddenly it was infiltrating thecorporate powerhouses controlling theplanet. From a party ofone it now counted millions ofusers on every continent, including Antarctica, and even outer space, ifyou count NASA outposts. Not only wasit the most common operating system running server computers dishing outall the content on theWorld Wide W'eb, but its very development model-an intricate web ofits own, encompassing hundreds ofthousands ofvolunteer computer programmers-had grown to become thelargest collaborative project in thehistory of theworld. The open source philosophy behind it all was simple: Information, in this case thesource code orbasic instructions behind theoperating system, should be free andfreely sharedfor anyone interested in improving upon it. But those improvements should also be freely shared. Thesame concept hadsupported centuries ofscientific discov ery. Now it wasfinding a home in thecorporate sphere, and it waspossi ble to imagine itspotential as a framework for creating thebest of anything: a legal strategy, an opera. Some folks caught a glimpse of thefuture and didn'tlike what they saw. Linus's round, bespectacled countenance became a favored dart board target within Microsoft Corporation, which wasnow faced with its first honest-to-goodness competitive threat. But, more often, people wanted to learn more about the kid who--ifhedid notstartit all-at least ix

jump-started it and was, in effect, its leader. The trouble was, themore successful Linu» and open source became, theless hewanted to talk about it. Theaccidental revolutionary started Linux because playingon a com puter wasfun (andalso because thealternatives weren't that attractive). So when someone triedtoconvince him tospeak at a major event bytelling him that his millions offollowers just wanted toat least see him, in the flesh, Linusgood-naturedly offered toparticipate in a dunk-tank instead. That wouldbe more fun, heexplained. And a way of raising money. They declined. It wasn't their idea ofhowto rnna revolution. Revolutionaries aren't born. Revolutions can't be planned. Revolu tions can't be managed. Revolutions happen.... -David Diamond x just for Fun
