Hadley Beeman has been doing some fantastic work developing conversations and ideas to meet many of the challenges that current open government data users are encountering. You can read her latest update on the project over here. What I meant to be a short comment turned into a blog-length set of reflections, so – reposted […]
The University bit is done. Having a few days to breathe – and then I’ll try and work out how best to draw out the practical learning from the project…
After a few weeks battling with a very tight word-limit (note to self: don’t try an exploratory, mixed-method and strongly qualitative research design if faced with a 10,000 word limit in future…) I’ve almost completed the dissertation part of this project. I believe the dissertation itself needs to be marked before I can share it […]
I shared some the draft findings of this study at a West Midlands Open Data event last week. I was speaking right before lunch, and the programme had over-run a little – so what you get in the video below is somewhat of a brisk canter through where I’d got to as of last Wednesday […]

The presentation is embedded below or accessible on SlideShare here. Who is using Open Government Data – […]

So, here’s the ongoing list of different arguments […]
One of the approaches I’ve been using in trying to analyse the 50 or so different cases of open data use I’ve collected in this study is to divide up the different processes of data use. I started with a simple schematic, and building on the theoretical reading I’ve been doing around data and information, […]
