The Online Lecture Discussion. Data analysis for journalists? We like ABCs not 123s! November 29, 2010. Exposing the expenses scandal; a team of 30 converted a sheet of numbers into reading material for the general public which rocked the boat at Westminster. This however, is all “simple” data analysis. Glyn gently introduced us to more challenging tools including Yahoo Pipes. Described as a “toy”, I must say Wordle looks like fun!

https://carolinebaldwinonlinejournalism.wordpress.com/2010/12/02/geo-location-yet-another-handy-tool
The Online Lecture Discussion. Geo-location: yet another handy tool. December 2, 2010. Geo-tagging and I haven’t had the best of relationships. I didn’t get on with Gowalla. After a “trip” made by my tutor at the beginning of term we found it really stressful and not user friendly, but maybe that was because my phone was two days old and I didn’t really know what I was doing. 🙂 🙂 X” Why. Do I do it? I was thinking if I wanted to use Geo-location for my niche blog. Let the debate continue…. Enter your c...

The Online Lecture Discussion. Analysing my niche blog: backtotheroots.co.uk. February 17, 2011. The purpose of my niche blog. Back to the Roots. Aims to explore locally produced food on a budget. Over the past term, I have not been as strict to this aim as I expected. I discuss prices, however many of my posts discuss local food in general, such as trying new recipes rather than their value for money. The tools I believe are most important to my blog are photographs and my google map. At first I found m...

In my undergrad course at Cardiff University, we were regularly shown case studies where investigative journalism...
