Re: New open source catalog and list of APIs on Data.gov

1) Wow, just wow. Great work.
2) I hear they just named a new virtual circle in Hell after Brand for using "audit" and "reproducible results" in he same sentence.  Are there Tours in non-Governmental English for we rustics ? :-)

Jeanne, Thank you. I heard Doug Nebert announce this yesterday at the UCGIS 2013 Symposium:
http://ucgis2.org/event-item/preliminary-program
 
When I look for the 73,651 data sets, I find only 7,808 at: https://explore.data.gov/Other/Data-gov-Catalog/pyv4-fkgv
 
So where are the other 65,843?
 
My audit for reproducible results is at: http://semanticommunity.info/An_Open_Data_Policy
 
Thanks, Brand

Hi all--
 
I invite you to visit Data.gov to see the new catalog for browsing U.S. open data: http://catalog.data.gov We have combined raw and geospatial data from many sources across the U.S. and presented it through an open source tool, CKAN. 
 
In connection with the U.S. Digital Strategy we have also created a new list of government APIs: http://www.data.gov/developers/page/developer-resources
