Manchester Open Data City

Hi all,

Hopefully the last cool thing for today: just discovered the  
following thanks to a tweet from @jwyg (Jonathan Gray of the Open  
knowledge Foundation)
http://www.futureeverything.org/news/opendata1

"We were funded in November 2009 by the Manchester Innovation  
Investment Fund* to work to make Manchester the UK's first Open Data  
City."

There's a social media cafe happening on Tuesday in Manchester, at  
which one of the people behind this will be talking:

february?rsvpConfirm=1
I plan to be there until I have to escape for Tuesday's board meeting  
- would be great if anyone else can come along too.

Mike
