Episode 2: Love

In this episode, we talk about why we love being involved in the open source world and technology in general. From problem solving and collaboration, to feeling at home in the friendly and supportive Umbraco CMS community.
We also discuss why we want to try organising a virtual hackathon, and why hammocks at a conference might be a bad idea...
We'd love to hear your feedback, suggestions, and questions so please get in touch; especially if you would like to be involved in the first Candid Contributions *virtual* hackathon.

Next time, the good and the bad of saying Yes...!
