As All Things Open gets into it's third and final day, we again point to some of the scheduled presentations that have caught our eye.
Here's what we're planning on watching stream today on the online part of ATO, to maybe help you make your own choices.

We found this short eight minute video quite by accident while searching through the FOSS Force News Wire looking for something else. In it, we find the well known open source community manager, Jono Bacon, at home, apparently alone and in his kitchen, recording himself as he plays with his newly acquired Google Home device. This surprised us, as we didn’t know he actually had a home. It seemed to us he spends all of his time in his office, and we figured he lived there. We were also surprised to find him alone.
