in Upcoming Events

On October 19th Six Hour Startup is embarking on our first .NET project and we need your help. As you may or may not know, Six Hour Startup is the frequent event where we attempt to build a potentially commercial project in a fun hands-on environment. You don’t have to be an expert, just willing to have fun and try something new.

We have a number of ideas for the Oct 19th project, but want to hear yours as well.

Please submit your ideas to http://sixhourstartup.ideascale.com/.  The projects should be fun, engaging and within the ability of a team to complete within six hours.  Previous projects have been TimeLope, a
Facebook Application, a lunch site, etc.  The ideas for the projects come from you, and its up to you to vote on a project that you think would be fun to do.


Feel free to join the Six Hour Startup mailing list to follow our projects and get involved.

Microsoft has generously offered to host the next Six Hour Startup, so rather than it being held at Giraffe Labs it is going to be held on the Microsoft campus in Redmond Washington. The event will be held in their Platform Adoption Center (Which is building 20 on this map).
