I'd love to see some cool stuff hacked with as/apollo/flex/etc.
a sneaking suspicion tells me that we have all the components to step
away from the constrictions of the browser (specifically, dealing
with IE) and instead run platforms which are just that little bit
easier....
i was initially thinking a flickr app which used voice activated
commands to browse tags etc... you'd have a big screen which you
spoke to, and from v.a. > an apollo app > flickr api interaction....
shame i can't find good quality voice activation. :)

Sounds like a great event. Can any language/technology be used?
RoR, Java, C#?
Is all the hacking done on the weekend? Or do people do prep before
hand?
When do we find out if we have been accept/invited?
