Meanwhile, please to enjoy the latest episode (#3) of Open Sources the ongoing podcast series in which Matt Asay and I attempt to shed light on various topics.

* Blog traffic is driven by Google, Apple and Microsoft
* We discuss whether or not Sun can sink open source if they fail
* Matt further realizes that open source companies need more value beyond just a license
* Dave demands that James Governor stop filling up everyone's Twitter box
