dotnetkicks running locally

In a very smart move by Gavin Joyce, dotnetkicks creator, the full source-code of the website is now public on GoogleCode and you can Checkout the code from it's SVN repository.

This move will make things much better as the website lacked a lot of important features that the community will now have the opportunity to add quickly.

To me, this is the first time I've seen anything like that. No website that offered a certain service to the people (example: facebook, digg, etc..) had it's own source code available to the public to enhance and update. The only 'open' thing about some websites is their APIs that you can leverage in your own application.

So far, Gavin didn't announce his plans on how persons will be able to update the actual website, but so far, running dotnetkicks locally is just good to see in your local computer ;)
