The She-BAMaatkit on Ohloh

http://www.ohloh.net/projects/10083
If you're on Ohloh, stack it!
www.ohloh.net is a neat social networking tool for open source software. Instead of searching freeware lists, search ohloh, and you can find reviews, # of people using the software, and direct links to download pages. My profile is at:

Stoner -- It's certainly not a site I'm on every day, but when I need a new piece of software I use it. It's useful for that, to find the answer to a question like "what are people using to do blah?" Open source software like MySQL, Postgres, PHP, Perl, Firefox, etc are kind of useless to me in that regard on Ohloh, because I already know a lot about them.

meh. About the only useful feature it has for me is the Related projects and user tag cloud where I can get an idea of where a project sits among others. Although interesting, it's still YASNS (Yet Another Social Networking Site) which is all the rage these days.
