We are seeing a whole economy develop around data and cloud computing. Businesses using them, whole industries depending on them, data volumes are increasing exponentially. Data is not just an economic sideshow; it is a whole new asset class; requiring new skills and creating new jobs. The most important journalistic skill that emerges in the future is the skill to ask questions and seek their answers in large datasets, the ability to analyze the numbers and trends that stand behind them, to frame events and form a picture of the whole.
