September was an action packed month, with 684,610 page views and 101 articles published. We ran three series, which included 13 articles in our Back to School theme, and speaker interviews for All Things Open and Grace Hopper Celebration of Women.

We not only published 21 articles about The Open Organization, but also hosted four live chats about the book on Twitter using the #OpenOrgChat hashtag (you're keeping an eye on that, right?). Open Organization ambassadors joined business leaders and acclaimed authors to discuss the ideas Jim Whitehurst advances in the book.

Find out what's coming up in our Opensource.com October preview.
