One of the things we were most excited about on launching Timetric was…
…on the face of it, pretty simple: putting data in front of you which up to now has been the preserve of academics, businessmen, economists and journalists. But raw data isn’t enough: it has to be data in a form where you can do something with it, and where you can all build on it.
We’ve started a new blog, Byline, to talk about the data behind the stories.
The technical posts will stay over here – on here, we’ll talk about Timetric itself, its APIs, new features, and some of the really great things people are beginning to build on top of the platform. But if you’re after the data in the news, Byline‘s the place to go. We’ve kicked off with some inflation data from everyone’s favourite economy-to-compare-things-to, Japan in the 1990s; we’ll also be pointing to the data you all upload to Timetric, and the best writing around the web using our data.
Have a look!
