That's a good idea. When one start up in my area I'll go there give my presentation. It will be good marketing anyways.

- icey 18y agoWhere do you get the idea that this is for pitching a startup? (http://freehackersunion.org/rules.html http://freehackersunion.org/rules.html - Rule #8)
- maxklein 18y agoAh okay, I misunderstood it. I did not read the rules :( Okay, I still think it's a good idea.
- philcrissman 18y agoFrom how I read "the rules" it sounds like: * demoing a product/website: fail. * showing how something (which could be a startup product, but most likely isn't) works under the hood (code, etc.): win. So exposure is not the point; the hack(s) that make it work are the point. At least, that's my take on it. Sounds interesting.
- adbachman 18y agoThe group was pretty much founded as an anti-business alternative to the existing business friendly events. I don't think marketing or "startup culture" have a place in the FU. But that's just my impression from reading the initial blog post and other essays building on the idea. See http://freehackersunion.org/why.html http://freehackersunion.org/why.html for a better explanation.
