Bob Dunn:
Hey, Bob Dunn here and welcome to a quick update at Open Channels FM. It’s short, but I wanted to make sure all of our listeners know about what’s coming. So we have been teasing about our new channel, Open Channels FM Live for a bit and well, after several ideas were knocked around, we finally have hit on something. And the good news is we have a launch date which will be in July, so a couple months from now. To sum it up, at this point we are looking at a short form live stream at the intersection of Open Source and the Open Web. What exactly will it be? Well, host Robert Jacoby and myself are working that one out. The idea is there, but not quite ready for us to give you all the details. But if you care about tools, ideas and people shaping how the Open Web actually works, this one is for you. And the reason I’m telling you this now is to keep updated between now and when we go live. You can get that dropped in your inbox. Probably won’t be a lot of them, but we’ll let you know as we have something to share. All you have to do is head over to Open Channels.FM and you’ll find a link in the top menu that says Live Stream Updates. That’s it. Short live and open. And a quick thanks to our sponsors Woo and Omnisend for their support. So until the next time, take care.
