What is Open Data?

Open data is data that can be freely used, re-used and redistributed by anyone - subject only, at most, to the requirement to attribute and share-alike. The full open definition gives precise details as to what this means. To summarise the most important: Availability and Access: the data must be available as a whole and at no more than a reasonable reproduction cost, preferably by downloading over the internet. The data must also be available in a convenient and modifiable form.

I've been sensing some interview angst on Twitter lately, so I thought I'd try to give you a sense of what to expect and how you can best prepare for your internship interview. I've interviewed dozens of interns and taught college students competing for internships, so this advice represents the cumulative knowledge I've gained on the subject by being an active participant in the process.
