This event has got people talking ! We’re looking forward to hosting the Leeds gig for the nationwide tour of Scraperwiki, an award winning data mining and screen scraper tool funded by 4IP

The aim of the day  is to show journalists how to use programming and design techniques to create online news stories and features; and vice versa, to show programmers how to find, develop, and polish stories and features. There’s more information here, including some film from the Liverpool event, and details of how to book.

There's plenty of time, and space, for some great projects to emerge from this hack day.

We’re providing the space, and the coffee. Other sponsors include Guardian Local, Guardian Open Platform and Leeds Trinity Centre for Journalism,
