App Engine Hackathons

November 12, 2008

A flurry of Web log posts swept through my newsreader when Google suggested that its enterprise initiative might support developers. You can read one of these posts here. If you are interested in learning a bit more about what Google’s enterprise unit might support, sign up for the Google App Engine Hackathon. There are two hackathons. One in in Atlanta, Georgia, and the other in Ann Arbor, Michigan. You can read more on Google’s Web log here. According to Google:

There will be talks on the major features of Google App Engine at different points throughout the day. We will run through developing an app with the SDK and show how to deploy and manage applications on Google App Engine. Google App Engine and Python enthusiasts from the community will be on hand to help and to answer questions throughout the day.

Google events are often crowded. The Atlanta hackathon is Saturday November 15, 2008 from 10AM-6PM at Google Atlanta in Millennium in Midtown, 10 10th Street NE, Suite 600, Atlanta, GA 30309 (map). The Ann Arbor hackathon will take place Monday November 17, 2008 from 10AM-6PM at Google Ann Arbor in 201 S. Division St., Ann Arbor, MI 48104 (map) You have to navigate here to sign up. The announcement of these hackathons was made on October 31, 2008, several days before the comment by Google at the Web 2.0 conference.
