Ready to be published? LXer is read by around 350,000 individuals each month, and is an excellent place for you to publish your ideas, thoughts, reviews, complaints, etc. Do you have something to say to the Linux community?
The success of GNU/Linux, free software, and open source have inspired a whole new generation of collaborative projects. In The Linux Week in Review 42, I will describe what GasBuddy is, and how it can help you to use the collaborative concepts behind GNU/Linux and Wikipedia to save money on gas.
One thing is very clear when I pore over the data that I receive from GasBuddy: a lot of companies overcharge for gas. How can one station charge $3.65 for a gallon of gas when a station less than a mile away can afford to sell that same gallon for $3.43? Inefficiency? Greed? It is probably a combination of factors. GasBuddy allows me to avoid the companies and stations that can’t get their act together.
