The recent spread of information technologies in developing countries has generated massive amounts of high frequency data. Analysis of this ‘big data’ can open up new perspectives of developing economies, perspectives that can lead us to better understand why poverty persists and what can be done to best help the poor.

I am working on several projects using big data to better understand the process of development; these will be posted here.

Old Projects:

• SpotBus Quick trip planner for Seattle transit.
• Pocket Animator Vector animation for the Pocket PC.
• Open Japan Character set mediator for viewing Japanese on the web.
• Degree Planning Assistant Software to help students plan their degrees.
• Memory Keeper Digital memoirs device for the elderly.
