One of my most fun clients is the Massachusetts Institute for a New Commonwealth. On paper, MassINC  is a serious non-partisan think tank - but it's also a group of people who know how to have fun celebrating a new epoch in "democratizing the data."

Next week, we are re-launching the MassINC web site by setting up a cyber-cafe by the grand staircase of the Massachusetts State House.  We'll be there under the golden dome, serving up free coffee and Krispy Kreme doughnuts, setting up laptops with internet access,  and offering tours of the new data-rich web site.

Activists, data geeks, advocates, policy wonks, students, elected officials,  political junkies, and all other members of the community will be warmly welcomed at this hands-on demonstration of MassINC's new free community resource. 

If you'd like to come to the cyber-cafe, please feel free to be in touch with me.  You can also go the RSVP page of the MassINC web site for details about the event.
