# Top 10 Silicon Florist posts for June 2009

Wow. June was a tumultuous month for the Silicon Forest startup scene. There were some big wins like [Open Source Bridge](http://siliconflorist.com/?s=open+source+bridge "Open Source Bridge posts on Silicon Florist") and the news of [Reductive Labs moving to Portland](http://siliconflorist.com/2009/06/23/puppet-master-reductive-labs-2-million-series-a-moving-portland/ "Puppet master Reductive Labs garners $2 million Series A and they’re moving to Portland"). But there was quite a bit of sad news, too.

I wanted to give you a look back. Just in case you missed anything. But I didn’t want to just pick topics willy nilly. So here are the top 10 posts according to you—a combination of Web and RSS metrics—from Silicon Florist for June 2009.
