Open Data, Re-usable Code

It feels like every day there is a new development in the Open Science movement.  It’s overwhelming, but exciting.  Here’s a site that I only just stumbled on: Kaggle.  It provides high-quality curated data sets for statistical exploration.  It also allows users to upload R or Python code for data analysis that others can use/adapt/compare.  Really, really cool!  Here’s the site:

About

I'm a teacher, researcher, and gadfly of neuroscience. My research interests are in the neural basis of learning and memory, the history of neuroscience, computational neuroscience, bibliometrics, and the philosophy of science. I teach courses in neuroscience, statistics, research methods, learning and memory, and happiness. In my spare time I'm usually tinkering with computers, writing programs, or playing ice hockey.
