SUMMARY:DIY Data: Creating the next generation of stories with data
DESCRIPTION:Telling stories with data has never been more compelling -- if
 you know how to do it. From ProPublica's data sleuthing to the
 best of what's possible on FlowingData and Information is
 Beautiful\, engineers and journalists are crafting new ways to
 explain our world with data.\n
 \n
 We'll take a look at the tools and techniques that turn raw
 datasets into investigative stories and digital products to grab
 a digital audience. Todd Holloway\, the senior data science lead
 at Trulia\, the modern equivalent of a newspaper real estate
 section\, and Chase Davis\, Director of Technology at the Center
 for Investigative Reporting\, will discuss these topics  (and
 what they do every day). As the Guardian says about DIY data
 storytelling\, "Data is the new punk."\n
 \n
 We'll wrap up with a lightning talk for hackers with datasets to
 meet hacks with story concepts!\n
