Hatch Day on hold

Sadly, based on the feed­back of many folks, who loved the idea, and wanted to get involved, but who weren’t sure that right now they’d be able to com­mit the time and effort required to really make a go of Hatch Day, we’ve decided to put it on hold for now.

However, the really really good news is, there will be a Webjam on the evening of Saturday the 29th, and with so many peo­ple in town, and so much good energy after the con­fer­ence, the Webjam team are hop­ing it will be the best one ever.

If you’ve done some­thing cool on the web lately, show the rest of us. The Webjam team are look­ing for 16 pre­sen­ters to show the world their sharpest recent web work, but they only get three minutes.

If you don’t have a demo, come along to cheer, heckle or just party. There’ll be booze, food and lots of your peers to hang with. Last time, there were dozens of peo­ple still par­ty­ing hours after the vot­ing finished.

Where: Bar Broadway, CNR of Regent St and Broadway, Sydney (oppo­site UTS)

When: 6pm, Saturday 29th September, 6.00pm till late

One of the moti­va­tions for the Hatch Day was to get peo­ple active in a hands on way, after a week of hear­ing about what other folks are doing — so it would be great to see as many peo­ple as pos­si­ble show off their stuff at Webjam.

Don’t hes­i­tate to get in there though: the num­ber of 3 minute pre­sen­ta­tion slots at Webjam are well and truly lim­ited: so be sure to reg­is­ter via the Webjam site today.

Hack days have been suc­cess­ful around the world, so we do hope to see some­thing of this kind hap­pen in Australia in the not too dis­tant future — in the mean­time, get in touch to reg­is­ter via the Webjam site, and start pol­ish­ing your three minute pre­sen­ta­tions to wow the crowd.
