You may be passionate about open source software or FLOSS (Free/Libre 
and Open Source Software) or you may simply be focused on getting your 
work done. Either way, according to Cory Doctorow, novelist, activist, 
journalist, and blogger, when you use open source software the work you 
do today is giving shape to the open source software of the future.

That's quite a responsibility—and a privilege. Cory explains what he 
means, and more important, what this means for the world at large. We 
invite you to listen to his thought-provoking keynote from the O'Reilly 
Open Source Convention last year, /How you got here/. You'll learn about 
the practical side of using open source as well as enduring benefits 
that you may not have imagined. And Cory's a brilliant speaker.

Cheers!

source software is rich with exciting potential. Learn useful skills,
