Hack now or Back off! - Open Hackday India 2009

February 11th, 2009 | by admin |

Ever thought of transforming the way the internet works? Ever wanted to radically change the user experience for the good? Ever thought of a cool service that if existed, would have made your life heaven? Or ever thought of that little feature you would have liked to see on a Yahoo! service? Here is your opportunity to put those ideas to limelight.

Hackday India is round the corners. So, what are you waiting for? Get Hacking!

Yahoo! is just back after the University hackdays at IIT Mumbai and Delhi, where students displayed their fresh ideas, and is looking forward to get more from a open set of people through the open hackday.

Last hackday that happened in the end of 2007 was the first one in India, and had a pretty good response from the hackers. There were hacks on collaborative browsing, maps, delicious, user interface improvements, visualisation of data, and even collaboration tool for surgeons. The hack ideas normally vary across a huge spectrum. You could find links to some of them from various hackdays across the world from here.

Hackers, don’t worry about faltering in your duty of making your valentine happy on Feb 14 if you have to come to hack your dream out. You could indicate via Hack-a-Valentine, and bring your Valentine along for the party at the Hack venue from 7-9 pm.

Venue: Taj Residency, Bangalore
Date: Feb 14, 15 2009
