Open Hack Day, UK

Beck at Yahoo! Open Hack Day by Laughing Squid / Scott Beale
Last October, Yahoo! held an Open Hack Day where we brought in developers and designers in the Bay Area to work on whatever they wanted to, and invited them to utilize Yahoo! APIs to make cool hacks … and that’s what people did. From Flickr Postcard mailers to a purse cam that sent periodic, geotagged photos to Flickr, there was a lot of great stuff that came out. And of course, there was Beck, the surprise performer.
This June, Yahoo!, in conjunction with BBC (”the Beeb”), are hosting a similar event but this time in the UK. A few of you UK readers probably already heard about this but if you haven’t, you should definitely sign up.
And yes, there will be a band playing. Not that you’re motivated by such trivialities.
