At 6am GMT an attempt at the world record for the most comments on an online news item in 24 hours began.
According to Guinness World Records® 100k unique comments are needed – that’s just over 1 comment a second!
We at Forlinux played our part in this by building the platform software, which has been placed in our neighbour Timicos’ brand new data centre with a Cisco UCS platform all to themselves!

We all need to look forwards to 2012 with hope and inspiration. With that in mind they are looking for comments about a person or organisation that has been an inspiration to you and you think will make a difference in 2012.

comment will be fine!
