This morning, I talked to Jamie, from Crowdflower](https://crowdflower.com) regarding a use case I've been considering for crowdsourcing.

Currently, a canonical, public dataset of public officials does not exist. I'd like to change that.

I mentioned:

  • 10k pilot project
  • 75-100k funded project

Jurisdictions -> Agencies -> Bodies -> Positions -> People -> Tenures -> Services

I'm going to be talking to Joe Phillips at Thursday at 3pm.

Leave a tip

Tips go directly to a Bitcoin SV address I control — peer to peer, no platform in between. A few thousand satoshis is a fraction of a cent; it's the gesture that counts.

From any BSV wallet

Scan the QR code with your wallet's camera, or copy the address.

With HandCash or any paymail wallet

Paymail is an email-style address for Bitcoin wallets. Send any amount to afomi@handcash.io

First time using Bitcoin? Yours Wallet is an open-source browser extension wallet, and HandCash is an easy mobile wallet — either takes a minute to set up.
