web census

Hi all,

building a thing called ‘web-civics’, was thinking about data, the issues with public data (or lack thereof).  thought perhaps a well organised census, perhaps supported by the likes of google, Facebook, schema.org might provide new data, for research in social-sciences areas that is otherwise missing.

often, even the homeless have a Facebook account...

thoughts?
