Short review of WhoHack #2

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 here.

Original anouncement

New hackathon but everything different; what’s much more interesting this time is the theme of the event and the openness. Yes, this time WhoHack is open for everyone, actually up to 42 ninja developers :) and don’t worry about getting thirsty or hungry, we have you covered all day with free snacks, drinks, lunch and supper.

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

Theme:
