We love it for what it makes possible — access to shared tools, code, and a worldwide support team — but also because it's a real community. Whether with our non-profit partners, other Drupal developers in the Twin Cities or Open Source contributors overseas, we know our best work comes out when we collaborate with our community. The technologies and philosophy of the Open Source movement capture that spirit of collaboration like nothing else. Origin Eight loves Open Source because we love tackling exciting challenges with other community-minded developers. If you're new to Open Source, check out [The Open Source Initiative](http://opensource.org/) and communities like [GitHub](https://github.com/) and [OpenStack](https://www.openstack.org/). If you're in Minneapolis on July 14 and want to learn more Open Source possibilities with PHP, we'll see you at the [Coding Craft Tour](http://www.craftingcodetour.com/minneapolis-mn-july-14-2014/).
