Come this Saturday for the Hackathon, where technical and interesting people share ideas, work on projects, and generally have a good time, in what have been called the most interesting places in Winnipeg (Skullspace and Assentworks).
When and Where
Saturday March 17, 2012 at 127 Adelaide. It's supposed to be noon to 8PM; most people arrive at 11AM-1PM and you'll often find some hanging around/chatting/working on projects until 2AM...
What's happening
In the classroom, interesting talks from wise people: (subjects are tentative)
- Michael Legary - turning a technical idea into a business
- Les Bester - recent history of telecom: BBSes and ISPs of Manitoba
- (confirming?) Jim Young/UofM - human-robot interaction and generating ideas
- (confirming?) Amateur radio D*Star system
As well, many members will be working on their projects in the workshop/lounge - If you have something in the works, even alpha-stage, bring it!
Sustenance
Anyone volunteer to bring tasty food?
