Hackathon In-A-Box

Just want to mention this resource from Microsoft’s partner Socrata  -  It is a guide made up of 5 steps which represent the lifecycle of a Hachathon:

1. • Step 1: Understanding your goals
   • Step 2: Planning and marketing your event
   • Step 3: Preparing for the big day
   • Step 4: The day of the event
   • Step 5: Post-event follow-up

  These are very good tips -- thanks for the links. I wrote up a related set of comments recently based on some experiences with World Bank data efforts, which are here: "How To Make Datathon Efforts Sustainable" www.ddmcd.com/datathon.html
