Yahoo hack day, well what a weekend, started off in a team, got on the train down to London after and Epic Strip the Riley, followed by a Curry.
Whilst napping my team deserted me…. Not nice.
Got to London, tube, stole some wifi from the Radiisson Hotel.
Went into hackday, set up my machines:
Built a chair:
Watched some bands,
watched Blade Runner, And all three LOTR in order.
Ended up that me, phoenixrising, and Cauis built the twitter search API, but using YQL, so we didnt present it, but did/will be extending it to search other sites…
