Following on from our discussion about university rankings yesterday, the latest THES rankings have been released today and are available here:

In an interesting twist on crowdsourcing, the Guardian newspaper allows you to download the data as a google spreadsheet doc and enocurages readers (the crowd) to visualise/analyse/mash-up the data and post the results to Flickr. This is a nice way to get the readers to do most of the work.
The Guardian datastore is available here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/1115946@N24/
UCC has risen 19 places to 107th overall, while UCD has broken into the top 100 and TCD is in the top 50.
