By unanimous vote (48-0), the City Council Committee on Technology passed Intro 29-A – otherwise known as “NYC Open Data Bill“.

This is HUGE!!!! With this law, NYC will lead the way and publish practically ALL of its data and kickstart a whole new Open Data ecosystem that will power it to its ambition to become the Premier Digital City of the Future.

And you can be sure that Ontodia will be there, iterating NYCFacets to help NYC’s Digital Ironworkers innovate on this vast data trove!

Wooohoooo!!!!!  With the SMW Site of the Month selection and this unexpected news, we hope Lady Luck keeps smiling on us. :)
