Tom Steinberg talks about mySociety and public data
In my latest podcast I talk with Tom Steinberg of UK-based mySociety.
We discuss mySociety’s approach to promoting transparency in Government, and consider some of their popular projects before exploring Tom’s views on moves by Government to make more of its data available for use and reuse.
During the conversation, we refer to the following resources;
- Data.gov
- Fix My Street
- Free Our Data
- The Guardian
- Hansard
- Mapumental
- mySociety
- Office of Public Sector Information (OPSI), and my recent podcast with John Sheridan
- OPSI Data Unlocking Service
- Power of Information Taskforce
- Recovery.gov
- Sunlight Foundation, and my recent podcast with David James
- They Work For You
- USAspending.gov
This conversation was recorded on Thursday 17 September, 2009.
