3rd Floor Atrium 75 Amherst Street Cambridge, MA 02139Description
Come and hack with an all-star cast of developers, entrepreneurs, journalists, and media thinkers at the MIT Center for Civic Media.
The Knight-Mozilla OpenNews project is sponsoring at 24-hour hack day as a lead-in to the 2014 MIT-Knight Civic Media Conference. While the conference is invite-only, the hack day is open to talented developers, open web experts, and journalists who want to spend their weekend working with others to build amazing things.
Following the conference theme of "The Open Internet and Everything After," this hack day will focus on projects related to the open web and net neutrality. We're gathering data sets, APIs, and details about the event on a wiki page, so please contribute to the page.
If you have ideas for new tools or data sets that help us better understand how the open web works and what interests are at play on the web, sign up for a weekend of hacking and building with us!
