Let's help students, professors and all people interested in performing data analysis (regressions, neural networks, etc) collect data from Internet. Ideally we could build a tool providing access to some cool APIs (or scraping time series from news.google.com, for ex) for non-tech people, enabling them to download datasets. Or we can set up a wiki-style educational website and invite people to share the recipes for scaping data. We could have all 3 parts on our website: 1. Tools for scraping data from some sources 2. Educational materials on how to write scraping scripts 3. Ready to use datasets 4. Research pieces written using these datasets
