[ddj] Open Data Movement is Transforming Journalism

Tue Jun 11 09:06:40 UTC 2013

Hi everyone,

This article from Wired might be interesting for some of you.

It points out that even though many traditional media are in decline, a
group of innovative reporters from all over the world are busy transforming
journalism through the power of open data.

They are working together with civil society groups and governments and are
constantly applying new digital tools to available data sets, which allows
them to tell stories with informative infographics. By doing this, they are
not only empowering communities, but they are also increasing transparency.

Have a nice day :)

Cheers,
Hanna
