Hackitude reloaded (or revisited)

Posted Thu, 21/01/2010 - 15:18 by chris

Some news I would have posted earlier if my site worked is that we are having a wee drink to get the hackitude peeps back together in the same room again. It's to reignite the enthusiasm that we had before Christmas on the project.

A chance for us to figure out where the next step for the project will take us. The foundation that has been laid is a simple yet highly flexible framework for any data that needs to store collections of location data. Hopefully we will be rolling it out to include time data to enable event capturing too.

For info on what we got up to and where things are going, please see the hackitude site. We had a great time and Mark Steadman was a proper trooper setting it up and getting us all together.

I think what we have at the end of it is quite an interesting foundation for future work. It's a way of storing things at places and displaying them on a map. Been done before? probably but the concept here is to aggregate data from various sources and provide easy access to it.
