About devGuide.net

devGuide.net is a new media publishing and Open Source training company. The company was established in 2003 by Jacek Artymiak when he had to quickly form a business structure to handle the flood of orders for the first edition of Building Firewalls with OpenBSD and PF. Jacek thought he would be lucky if he sold 100 copies. The book sold over 6,000 copies in the first two years and will have its third edition in Autumn 2008. devGuide.net has since then branched into on-line training, e-learning, software, and multimedia publishing with focus on Open Source, Mac OS X, new tools and technologies.

devGuide.tv Live!

We are experimenting with doing a live TV show on the Internet. It will be called devGuide.tv and it will be about IT, new technologies, OpenBSD, and Open Source.

Some of the shows will be closed, but most of them will be open to general public. More details coming up soon. For now, if you see a prompt asking you to enter a password, use mysecret.

We would like to host the shows at around 5:00~6:00 PM (GMT) and 10:00~11:00 AM (GMT), but for a while it is going to be a hit and miss thing, whenever Jacek has the time to do them.
