	AlterNet: The Great Open Source Giveaway
		OpenCola is the most prominent sign yet that a long-running battle between rival philosophies in software development has spilt over into the rest of the world.
		The Toronto-based OpenCola company has become better known for the drink than the software it was supposed to promote.
		OpenCola is a happy accident and poses no real threat to Coke or Pepsi, but elsewhere people are deliberately using the open source model to challenge entrenched interests.

	Open Cola
		Opencola is also a desktop application by that same company, which enables users to search, acquire, manage and share information from multiple data sources, including the Internet, peers on the Opencola network, and existing proprietary databases, from a single interface.
		Opencola extends search engine capabilities with the ability to perform contextual searching — a process that searches an entire document’s contextual subject matter for relevance and tries to replenish previous searches with more relevant results.
		Opencola is also a brand of cola unique in that the instructions for making it are freely available and modifiable.

		The Toronto-based company Opencola founded by Grad Conn, Cory Doctorow and John Henson became better known for the drink than the software it was supposed to promote.

	Opencola Launches Personal Knowledge Manager
		Opencola analyzes similarities between peers on the Knowledge Network and can suggest a user in search results as a “relevant peer.” Opencola allows customers to set permissions for every item in every folder residing within Opencola.
		Opencola was founded in 1999 as a developer of open source technology solutions.
		Keldsen noted that Opencola allows companies to tap into the “buried gold” of corporate knowledge, which isn’t all captured safely in centralized locations but rather is sitting unorganized on users’ desktops, e-mail folders, and bookmarks.

	Tech, Knowledge, and Community: OpenCola--a different way of mining content
		OpenCola is a system of collaborative, distributed agents which can run behind an organization's firewall.
		OpenCola is also working on a high-speed content distribution system for large files called Swarmcast.
		Essentially, Swarmcast splits a file up into small packets and leverages the bandwidth of users who are currently or have just finished downloading that file to simultaneously serve parts of the file to the next user who requests it.

	Works of Karl Schroeder
		OpenCola was a clarion call to the peer to peer community, an attempt to redefine how data moves on the internet--an attempt, ultimately, to redefine what ownership means on this newest medium.
		One of the advertising gimmicks used in the early days of the project was an open-source cola--the can was to have the recipe printed on the side--hence the name of the company.
		OpenCola Folders itself is a kind of research bot that noses around the internet for you, comparing notes with other people's Folders and finding stuff that you may want, but don't know you want.

	Nouveau Niche
		OpenCola has a mechanism in place for publishers to sell their material, or give some or all of it away.
		OpenCola also supports the "tip protocol" a la Stephen King, where users download material and pay for it on the honor system, and the unfortunately named "street-performer protocol," where a creator releases a work into the public domain after a certain amount of money has been "thrown into the hat" by any number of customers.
		One gets the feeling that Doctorow is doing OpenCola partly as some kind of postmodern science-fiction performance art experiment, where humans and their personal robots team up to score more whuffie points (used in OpenCola's reputation-ranking system) than anyone else on the network.

		For the first time ever, you could make the real thing in your own home (by June 2002, the recipe no longer seemed to be available).
		What started as a technical debate over the best way to debug computer programs is developing into a political battle over the ownership of knowledge and how it is used, between those who put their faith in the free circulation of ideas and those who prefer to designate them "intellectual property".
		The Toronto-based OpenCola company became better known for the drink than the software it was supposed to promote.

		OpenCola's solution is 99 percent open, which means most of the code is available to any developer who downloads the software development kit.
