About the show

Open Web Conversations is about where open source and the open web are headed, and the ideas and forces shaping that path, technical, political, or cultural. It's less about any one project or person, more about the bigger picture of digital openness. The open web is a spectrum, and our mission is to share the voices and ideas shaping its future. Part of the Open Channels FM Podcast Network.
