Open Signal

Open Signal is personal commentary on open source and the open web, hosted by Bob Dunn, founder of Open Channels FM. Bob's spent over three decades in business and has the scars, and the staying power, to show for it. He and his wife have called themselves cockroaches for years, meaning nothing's killed them off yet. Optimistic, open minded, and quick to laugh, though he'll admit he'd usually rather listen than talk. Here, he talks anyway, sharing direct takes on what's happening in open source and the open web. Sometimes you'll agree, sometimes you won't, and that's the point of being here.
