FootballWhat’s the data driven journalism (#ddj) crowd tweeting about? Here are the Top Data Journalism Links on Twitter for the last two weeks, September 3-17. Included are items from the crowdsourcing, cross-border project Generation E; Detective.io, the open source platform for large data sets; the sleuths at ICIJ; Switzerland’s Le Temps; and Germany’s CORRECT!V, FAZ, and Berlin Morning Post. Thanks as always to Marc Smith of Connected Action for gathering the links and graphing them.
