In yet another attempt to suck up to the naturally fanatical geek community, OpenCola comes with a stupid Perl poem on the can, and a recipe for homemade cola that they are pretending makes OpenCola the first consumer product released under the GPL.
Not quite, of course: the recipe is not the actual recipe for the OpenCola product (to be expected given the nature of mass soda production).

 Anteroom: February 2005
Back in 2002, a software company in Toronto began promoting its products by creating a marketing device called "Opencola." The give-away, used at trade shows and conventions, was a silver aluminum can of cola that contained as part of the packaging most of the recipe for making the beverage at home.
If you chose to go to the website, you could find the remainder of the recipe, for free (for the record, the url used to be www.opencola.com, but appears to be gone now).
On January 22nd, 1998, Netscape announced that it would be releasing the source code to its popular web browser Navigator to the public, which eventually led to the creation of the Mozilla Foundation.

When one computer on the network learns that it has been given a computing task that lends itself to distribution (such as database conversion, image manipulation and rendering, or file-format conversion), it can poll the other computers connected to the network to find clients available to help.
OpenCOLA is another community computing effort, an open source distributed search tool that uses idle CPU cycles to help maintain a noncommercial index of the Web's contents.
Unlike commercial search engines, which pay for the necessary tasks of spidering the Web to update their indexes, OpenCOLA (www.opencola.com) relies on each participant in the community to pick part of the Web to spider in their spare time.

Successful robots and the humans who create them become attractors for searches by others, and openCOLA has mechanisms for propagating and validating the reputation of such useful searchers."
