To get some practice with Python (and because the teacher takes too long to get to the interesting stuff), I started a side-project to analyse and convert open data. I'm gonna attempt to visualise NYC's Citibike data. I already figured out how to calculate the average trip time for females and males as a test (men bike longer than women). Next week we'll learn how to handle the ArcGIS Python package, so I can actually make some cool stuff, I think. I'm aiming to make something cool like this.

Also I'm in a dilemma - there is a Startup Weekend here this weekend, and I'd love to go, but I'm also one of the two / three volunteers invited to help promote the radio station this Saturday on a fair. Both are really cool to do!
