Caroline, I'm in Philadelphia and I'm organizing a last-minute entry. Ping
me if you're interested.
http://hiddencityphila.org/2012/07/calling-all-data-junkies-civic-data-chall
enge/

Whatever we come up with, I'm probably going to publish it on Hidden City
Philadelphia regardless of the challenge outcome. 

Best,
Meredith

Because I live in Philadelphia, I thought it would interesting to attend the
associated conference on September 14. Registration is free, which was
exactly what I'd be willing to pay. 

 

I was looking over the program and I wasn't inspired. Being from Philly, I
saw that the brains (and hearts) of my city is not represented. The owner of
the Eagles is a featured expert, sigh. But there is a Civic Challenge meetup
the night before at a hotel bar, which sounds like a great way to talk
informally. 

 

So, I guess I'm going to live vicariously through this civic data challenge.
My hunch is this will become an annual competition.

I did some digging - turns out it opened in March! So it was more like a
"last call for submissions" than an announcement.

That was the first time I heard of it. I don't know if others have seen it
announced earlier?

Dear all,

 

I thought this civic data apps competition might be of interest to some of
you.


It would be if it didn't have a deadline five days from now. Was this
actually announced just today, or has it been kicking around on the web for
months?

 

 

All the best,

 

Liliana
