Hackday London

What a cool weekend. I was really impressed by the people who showed up for this. 74 hacks were presented on Sunday afternoon after an all night coding marathon. The building, Alexander Palace, was struck by lightning, rain poured in through the skylights and the wifi network collapsed. All part of the fun.


This is katemonkey demo'ing our team's entry Storybook which had a go auto-illustrating text via the Yahoo and Flickr APIs and passed pics to Maya for rendering into 3D scenes.


A great reminder that developer communities are the heart and soul of the Web. Kudos to the backstage crew at the BBC and Yahoo for putting together a wicked show.
