From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mugshot is a social networking website created by Red Hat. Unlike most other social networking websites, it also has a desktop client component. It is meant to facilitate real-world interactions with friends, and make one's normal computer use more social. Current features include Web Swarm which lets users share web links and join in conversations about them, Music Radar, which displays which songs a user is listening to, and allows conversations about the song. Mugshot also integrates with many other sites, such as del.icio.us, Digg, Flickr, last.fm and YouTube. Many features are planned, including 'TV Party'.
The software that runs the Mugshot site is free software, and most of the client code is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). Various parts of the server code are distributed under the GPL, the Open Software License 3.0, the Apache License, and the MIT License, all of which are free software licences.[1][citation needed]
