Hackers, Hackers, Everywhere!

"Bangalore. Berkeley. Boston. London. Palo Alto. Dundee. Manila. Pasadena. Pittsburgh. Sunnyvale. Champaign-Urbana. Seoul."

Words to a song by the immortal Johnny Cash? Nope. Stops on Beck's next world tour? Hardly. Places you can get a really great cup of espresso? You're getting warmer. What do all these places have in common? We've gone there for Hack Day.

Here with the scoop from Bangalore is our own Maria Sansone, taking the 9 to 11, just this once....

Over the last couple of years we've been struck by lightning, hacked by naughty puppets, and overwhelmed at every turn by the sheer ingeniuity of our participants. We've seen a ton of hacks, from the sublime to the ridiculous, but we're pretty sure we haven't seen them all. So keep an eye on hackday.org and the University Hack Day page ... your turn to play will come.
