I think the open data is going to become an education story. David Eaves writes, "this is the real hope. That a whole new category of winners emerges. That the barrier to use for software developers, entrepreneurs, students, academics, smaller companies and non-profits will be lowered in a manner that will enable a larger community to make use of the data and therefor create economic or social goods." I agree. Just think of the value open government data could have inside educational offerings.
