The UK Government wants to hear your ideas for new products that could improve
the way public information is communicated.

See: http://www.showusabetterway.co.uk/

and

To give the more technically minded some raw material and a headstart on getting
any prototypes up and running, we have brought together here a huge quantity of
information for reuse.

Several exciting new datasets are being make widely available for the first
time, including  the Royal Mail's Postcode PAF file, Neighbourhood Statistics
from the ONS, Health care information, from NHS Choices, a list of all schools
in England and Wales from the DCSF and the Official Notices from the London Gazette.

Below you'll also find listed a wide range of other sources of public data, as
well as some other useful APIs.

Please leave a comment if you know of any more sources of useful public data,
and we'll add them to the list below. Have fun, and good luck...
