Just like the first time, everybody gathered in caffe bar Fusion, right next to the hackathon classroom. Drinks and snacks were free but to our surprise, not consumed as much as we expected. There was a problem with ideas again, we need to think of a way to help you find a great idea to build on WhoHack #03; maybe prepare some cool but easy to build list of ideas and post them on a wall (a physical one).
We had somewhere over 15 people (developers and non-developers) working on something. Check the gallery and some of the projects below:

We are announcing the second WhoHack hackathon organized by WhoAPI startup.
New hackathon but everything different; what’s much more interesting this time is the theme of the event and the openness.

All the finished projects will be published on whohack.com, promoted via WhoAPI Blog and some domestic media. Best projects will be awarded!

Space is limited, so we need you to do this, thanks ;)
This event is backed by Enterprise Europe Network in cooperation with Science and technology park in Rijeka.
To put it bluntly, It was pure awesomeness! :) Everybody gathered earlirer than expected in caffe bar Fusion, we discussed various ideas we wanted to build and once we decided - hacking started as scheduled.
At first, up to noon, It seemed like there’s no way to finish what we have set to do but after we cooled down with the geekish talks you could hear only the sound of keystrokes most of the day. Don’t forget to check the full gallery here. To keep this short, here are the finished projects:
