Hi all

Thought you might be interested in this competition/funding
opportunity from HMGov:

http://www.showusabetterway.co.uk/

"Tell us what you'd build with public information and we could help
fund your idea!"

The UK Government wants to hear your ideas for new products that could
improve the way public information is communicated. The Power of
Information Taskforce is running a competition on the Government's
behalf, and has a £20,000 prize fund to develop the best ideas to the
next level. Examples of the type of thing they are are looking for are
here:

Had a quick look around the site and saw this list of datasets, which
looks like a pretty good resource:

Anyone with any good ideas for community media gets to win twenty grand.

Regards

Bill
