I liked the challenge. It's only limited to web hackers though. iOS/ObjC or Android/Java developers are cut out pretty much if they've never done web coding. Also the hardcore coders that do algorithms and and such. These people are necessary part of any good hackaton, otherwise the final products are just web eye candies. Do you think giving some RegExp's (which are pretty much a part of all languages) would attract wider hacker audience?
- sgrove 14y agoI was going to say that for an eCommerce hackathon, you probably don't need hardcore algo-hackers or mobile devs, but then I started to wonder what you could do with good web skills, data-mining/scraping, and a slick mobile experience with some of the API's it provies (geolocation, etc.). That would indeed be a pretty impressive hackathon, I think :)
