Recently we've been discussing open source tools for software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications and the good fit that many people perceive there to be for open source and SaaS. As part of GigaOm's Structure 08 conference today, our sister site has an interview with Salesforce founder Parker Harris. Salesforce is proprietary, but is a stunning example of SaaS success. Also check out the Structure panel on next-generation infrastructure for new entrepeneurs, and AMR Research's thoughts on disruptive technologies and trends. Finally, check out a panel of top luminaries discussing harnessing growth online, including input from Meebo on open source.
