[ddj] Anyone know successful examples of business models for data journalism?

[marco Laucelli]

Hi everybody,
I wanted to share with you this paper from the IBM Institute of Busines
Value that analyzes the business models that could be promoted by a a
government with OpenData initiatives.

I really think this is useful and complete and I hope you find it useful.
Regards,
Marco.
