I wonder if DCC or someone else has a central place where such examples could live and be accessible to all?

These are generally news stories, but I also have a few posters drawn by silly PHD students who've lost their laptop/USB/data etc. I was just wondering if anyone else had any good examples they could share? Ideally I'd like to have examples from a range of academic disciplines to engage researchers in all our faculties. Most of the examples I have so far are of disasters/successes for scientists. I'm particularly looking for good news stories about data sharing in education at the moment, but anything is useful. Happy to share what I've got with anyone who's interested!
