I discovered some Wendy’s training videos from the 90′s, detailing for new employees how to serve hot and cold drinks. I had no idea how precise a procedure it was. Or how awesome. Thanks, Consumerist. . . . → Read More: "Put the Lid on the Cup, Things are Really Looking Up"

Just look at any one of Sunlight’s projects and you’ll realize that it takes a mountain of data to help keep government open and transparent. From district information to campaign expenditures to lobbying dollars, making sense of large data sets is an intensive, concerted effort. Many of your own projects use dozens of spreadsheets, take [...] . . . → Read More: Tools for Transparency: Google Fusion Tables
