In a way, this continuous sprawl is a success in itself. On the other hand, critique [1] related to the lack of sustainability of the apps contests is growing. There is a demand and a need to learn from each other and design better and more sustainable models for boosting the innovation around open data. > > If you are interested in making better apps contests or have other new ideas on how to boost the innovation around open data ? feel free to join the discussion at the appsforx -email list [2]. The list was established after a international Apps Contest Organizers meetup which was organized during the Open Knowledge Festival 2012 in Helsinki (see also the meeting memo [3]). > > Right now I am compiling a topic report with working title: ?Innovation Contests for Open Data Re-use?. I would appreciate all help in populating the listing of Apps contests [4], you can add missing details directly to the Google spreadsheet or share this email and the blogpost link [5] to relevant forums and people who might know about other apps contests. > > Best regards, > Antti Poikola (Apps for Finland coordinator 2009) > > [1] http://radar.oreilly.com/2011/08/app-contests-sustainability-usability.html > [2] http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/appsforx > [3] http://okfestival.okfnpad.org/apps > [4] http://bit.ly/apps_contests_list > [5] http://poikola.fi/apps-contests-everywhere/ > > -- > +358 44 337 5439 > about.me/apoikola > > _______________________________________________ > open-government mailing list > open-government at lists.okfn.org > http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/open-government > Unsubscribe: http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/options/open-government/daniel.dietrich%40okfn.org -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
