Data store opening night

Yes, you read that right: We have a data store! In true Bath: Hacked spirit, we want everybody to take ownership of this beast so we're holding a data night on 7th August at 6.15pm at The Guild.

As well as finishing the beer stash leftover from the last hack, you can also play with the store, add data, do your best to break it and enjoy an evening sharing ideas and plans for world domination with other devs.

Socrata have helped us set up a really very excellent repository for local data. It should make access to datasets a whole lot easier: Devs will love that almost everything can be an API, and your auntie will love that she can build and embed maps and visualisations with no specialist knowledge.

Now we just need you to help us make it work.
