===Web Hosting===
WSO lets students and alumni put their web pages on our servers. To apply for an account, email Scott Tamura (stamura@wso). Please supply a williams.edu email address to send the password to. Organizations can also get web pages through WSO.
Our web hosting supports PHP and server-side includes by default. If you want more advanced features, such as CGI, MySQL, or PostgreSQL, contact a [[Root]].

===http://wso.williams.edu===
This is our fancy web site, featuring blogs, a calendar, a campus facebook, photos, floor plans, choose your own adventure, and surveys. We wrote it all ourself with the help of Apache PageKit. If you have ideas for it, please come to a meeting (above). Or scribble something on [[Stuff WSO Should Definitely Do]].
===Linux Parties===

===Listservers===
A listserver is an email address that distributes messages to a bunch of people. WSO hosts listservers for student groups broadly defined, and other organizations around campus/Williamstown. You can apply for a listserver at http://wso.williams.edu/lists/create, and we'll try to get to the request in a few days. A complete list of WSO listservers is available from http://wso.williams.edu/mailman/listinfo.
WSO uses Mailman to power its listservers.
===campus@wso===
This is a listserver with basically all students subscribed. It has information about campus happenings. See [http://wso.williams.edu/mailman/listinfo/campus] for info about subscribing or unsubscribing, and see [http://wso.williams.edu/lists/campus] about sending messages.
===wso/wiki===
You're reading it now. We host, hack, and prune the wiki.

In February 2005, WSO was hacked by a group of Brazilians calling themselves Simiens Crew 2005.
