Civic Webs DataCamp Meetup
Research Club

Come and work with developers, designers, citizens, librarians, statisticians and urban planners to brainstorm and create applications that improve the city you live in. You don't need to process massive data sets, or have knowledge of the latest fancy database. We encourage "small data" projects and creativity in solving problems.

Examples of things to do: Projects such as: http://grandmagrandma.com/page/projects Opening data: http://www.opendataday.org Scraping public data: http://scraperwiki.com/search/boston

Max Ogden will be co-hacking from Boston, where he's currently placed for his Code for America fellowship.
