Data: Weekly Fuel Prices 11th Aug 09

James Darling and I met up for a chat about some data-related stuffs this afternoon, and came across this data on average fuel prices via the Office of National Statistics. This struck us both as being very useful (any hauliers out there who want to make some a nice visualisations?) so we threw together a script to convert it into (much) more useful formats.

Check out Weekly Fuel Prices, in more formats than you can shake a stick at, here.

ScenicOrNot: want to play with the data? 26th Jun 09

mySociety have added a data dump to ScenicOrNot, the site we built for them a couple of months ago. It’s got the photos and all the votes for each of the 181,300 places that have received 3 or more votes since the site launched.

If you’re one of the many people who had something to say about the voting system that ScenicOrNot uses, we hope you might have some fun playing with the raw data! If you do make something, let us know how you get on…
