What's the least friendly US state to live in if you're gay? Can you calculate your social class based on your taste in music? Who are the best connected families in China? We supported two initiatives at the Global Editors Network summit held last week in Paris's magnificent Hotel de Ville aimed at helping journalists answer such questions by making more use of data.GEN’s Data Journalism Awards , now in their second year, are the only international awards in this fast-growing field. The winning entries showed the power that data analysis and visualization can have in telling stories and engaging readers. You can see all the winning projects here , including the one the public voted best - the Art Market for Dummies .De Volkskrant . Judges commended for the way they were able to incorporate personalization, social and mobile trends into their homepage. Take a look at the finalists’ entries here - they offer a vision of how news websites may look in the future.Posted by Peter Barron, Director, External Relations, Europe, Middle East and Africa
