Hack Submissions

Many of you have already been forming teams either on the site or off-site. It’s great to see this energy. To further help you in both forming your teams officially and maybe beginning to create the shell of your hacks we are opening up the Hack.Trackr tool from this Friday to you all. Since your hacks will not be fully fleshed out yet or still early in the inception you could put in a placeholder for your hack & team and as it gets more refined you can update your hack entries with the details. This tool will also allow us to help you on your hacks through the 24 hour hack day. Here are the 2 steps you need to do follow to properly enter your hack:

login to yahoo.com with your yahoo account so you can add/update your hack entries (or click this link)

Enter as much details as you can or want on the Hack.Trackr (http://developer.yahoo.com/hacku/register)

24 hour hacking will kick off at 13:00pm Saturday. Only hacks that have been entered in the Hack.Trackr will be allowed to demo on Sunday at 2pm.

Change to Agenda

Due to an increase in demand and also for calls to have all the talks shown one after another, we have changed the schedule of the talks, The talks will now run from 9:30 to 16:00 with a lunch break in the middle. The hacking will still start at 13:00. Please check out the new Agenda here.
