The syndication tool allows users to access a wide range of open source technologies across a variety of topics including Web 2.0 technologies, game development and Web innovation through a web site called IBM developerWorks. With a click of a button, any computer or mobile device user can set up syndication on a technology topic. Programming, training or technical expertise are not required.
Key to the experience are developer gizmos from IBM, software that provides a simple interface to select content from the IBM developerWorks web site, a central hub for thousands of technical resources, and export it to customizable web pages, such as MyYahoo! and iGoogle.
Using the service, a small business owner, for example, can create a customized gizmo on a MyYahoo! web page to receive free updates and information on Web 2.0 technologies. Gamers can get up-to-date information from forums and information on the latest technological advances in gaming while learning how to create better gaming applications. Using a gizmo, for example, Sudoku fans can receive a tutorial on how to create their own version of the game that automatically generates new puzzles.
