It’s time to get out and have some fun with other Hackaday people in your area and we have the perfect opportunity. Be part of Hackaday World Create Day on Saturday, April 23rd. This is all about meeting others for an afternoon of creativity. You might even find your engineering dream team! As part of World Create Day you’ll and brainstorm an amazing creation and connect with the people in your area that round out your own skills (electrical, mechanical, design, etc.).
This is the first ever worldwide event Hackaday has organized, and it’s made possible by all of the people who volunteered to organize a Hackaday Meetup in their area. We have heard from more than 100 of you so far and [Liz Krane] has done an amazing job following up with each organizer to get everything set up. You can still sign up to host (or co-host) and use the map to join a meetup already organized in your area.
We’re just getting started but the first added are in Ottawa Canada, Lagos Nigeria, Lynchburg, Virginia, and Puducherrry, India. We have more on the way in Malaysia, Greece, South Africa, India, Cyprus, New Zealand, France, Mexico, China, and many locations in the USA.
We’re sending out World Create Day sticker packs — created by [Joe Kim] and [Michael Guilfoil] — as fast as we can set up the Meetup pages. We will be on the lookout for Hackaday Meetups and World Create Day projects to feature right here on the Hackaday front page. Carve out 4/23 from your calendar and get excited, you don’t want to miss this!
As part of World Create Day you’ll ______ and brainstorm…..
Don’t commenters here create enough words already?
If I filled in the Google form a while ago and got no emails, should I give it another go or is there a delay in processing?
There’s a delay in processing, sorry about that. We’ll be in touch!
Thanks, no worries! I imagine you must have tons to work through :)
There are only 2 dots on the map you link to. Please fix it, I’d like to see if there is one near me.
I hope there’s one meetup near me. It sucks to have the nearest hacklab over 100km away and have no car, only moped.
Sucks even more for it to be that far away and only have your legs, and to also not even live in town to begin with. I’ll look into trying one of the online meetups, but I don’t see how that would help me to make something physical.
I take and hope this is a virtual meet up taking place in the ether. At first read it looked like Hackaday was asking the local communities to organize a local eyeball to eyeball Hackaday event in less than three weeks. Really not enough lead time to accommodate busy people, especially if they have kids with active lives.
Anywhere near Pune,MH,IN. ?
Are we going to start with a Class M planet, from cosmic dust, or begin with a Singularity?
On that day there is also a celebration here in germany for 100 years Reinheitsgebot (“purity decree”) of beer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_in_Germany#Reinheitsgebot
So i think i have to create something when i am drunk.
dang it, i mean 500 years ;)
” use the map to join a meetup already organized in your area.”
