Subject: Hardware at Hack Day [was -Re: [backstage] Hack day in
London]
Hey Chris - really good point actually and it's not something
we've considered at all - let me take this up and see what we can come
up with - I must admit we did assume that people would bring their own
kit.... Leave it with me.

I'm interested in attending the hack day, but what is
the deal with regards to hardware. What will we be hacking on? I ask
as I don't own a laptop myself at the moment, and don't fancy lugging my
desktop to London! Is the idea to work in teams with people who have
got the hardware?
Cheers, Chris

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?
