The First Pachube International Internet of Things Hackathon:: a global 24-hour event :: April 8, 2011 at 3:00 p.m. (NL time) to April 9, 2011 at 3:00 p.m. (NL time):: MADlab,Vestdijk 280, 5611CZ Eindhoven ::

Calling all developers, designers, makers, mixers, mashers, tinkerers, philosopher-mechanics and sales engineers! Join us in helping to define and build the Internet of Things on Global Internet of Things Day! Use Pachube if you want, or build on other APIs – make something physical, or virtual; hardware or software; conceptual or practical – the point is for us to spend 24 hours connecting up our things to the web, our environments to our things, and our things to US!

Participation is free after registration. Food and drinks in open contribution format. Register as individual or team by sending a mail to info@madlab.nl.

There will be also a hackathon in London but it is expected that Pachube‘s global community will host sister events around the world. The idea is for us all, in countries throughout the world, to spend 24 hours on Global Internet of Things day building new devices, applications, and tools, and experimenting with bleeding-edge (beta) Pachube features, connecting to each others’ devices and environments in realtime across the planet, and building up a repertoire of innovative applications and services for the Internet of Things that make the vision of a connected planet a reality!
