Development by Davis: “Using open data for regional collaboration” plus 1 more |
Using open data for regional collaboration Posted: 18 Feb 2013 02:00 AM PST I have a regional, collaborative philosophy of open data initiatives and municipalities. In North Carolina, the cities of Cary, Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill all share the economic engine that is the Research Triangle Park. They also share the innovation engine of five, top universities. The Triangle just got its next open data participant: the Town of Cary. |
Can Inkscape save people from a life of crime? Posted: 18 Feb 2013 12:00 AM PST When the free vector drawing program Inkscape was first released in late 2003, I realized this software could do some part in helping to reduce the number of people incarcerated in the United States. This worthy goal is still within reach. Let me explain. From 1990 to 2000, I spent quite a bit of time supporting the Adult Literacy Services Division of the D.C. Public Libraries. Then, this division was exploring how technology could help adults learn how to read (among other things). I saw up close how computers could engage these adults, many of whom had learning disabilities.
