WoWSharp is a tool that helps you cheat at World of Warcraft. I understand that cheating is a big problem in online games, but it still had me as “waaaay cool”. Why? Because authors decided to release the source to public and thus decentralize development and give skilled hackers some leverage to build upon.
It seems to me that the act of sharing and communities on which most of our global development depends is reflected in even such self-centered communities as is virus and MMORPG cheat writing. And when these people start working in different settings, in different communities, they will depend on the same amount of information sharing. And know-how will become more free. Step by step.
P.S.
Because I’m also playing with Flock and its integrated tools I’ll also embeed a picture to see how the Flickr integration works.
