TM: Working with Quotidian Data on this project gives me a bias to believe in the availability of platforms to build and create forums for discussion and produce qual data. The stand out example is the Crowdmap under Ushahidi; it helps students (which we all always are) know more about where to get data, what kinds of data is available to them and on the flip side open up information centres to public. PhD students can use forums like this to get data for themselves and thereafter share their findings in the system thereby generate a self sustaining loop. This is the way forward in my opinion for the benefit of all.
