Directions

• brainstorm options
• identify criteria
• prioritize

Principles

• Focus on outcomes rather than means of getting there

Criteria

• It's fun and something we want to do and use
• Can we share it
• Fast
• Potential user community

Brainstorm

• datopian.com - https://github.com/datopian/www.datopian.com
• Publish another datasets or two
• Tell a data story
• Make a default dataset page that looks awesome
  • https://github.com/datasets/rio2016 - how could this become a nice web page
    • Having structured metadata auto displayed rather than manually entered
    • Having preview of the data etc
• Putting awesome data on datahub again … so that we practice running a hub, because the data is awesome
  • Aside: Let's go full github ;-) e.g. using commit history and all that stuff
• Obsidian publish
• Product/price comparisons done easy / right
  • Form submission products (we need this)
  • Table libraries
  • Cloud hosting
  • Idea: we host as data literate project, its all in the open so people can contribute … and we publish on the site

Outcomes version

• Publishing cool data-driven content that starts to get attention e.g. product comparisons, finance info etc
  • => publish on datahub.io
  • =>
• Obsidian publish alternative (i.e. markdown publishing alternative) because huge interest and attention with obsidian and the publish option is limited (e.g. can't customize, expensive, can't add functionality like MDX)
• An awesome new website for datopian that incorporates more of our content (e.g. tech.datopian.com) and is fun to contribute to
  • Why does this matter?
