I went to a devHouse event last weekend, and it was fun. It was so fun that I wanted to look up when the next one was. To my dismay, I found that there are no regularly scheduled events similar to SuperHappyDevHouse in SF.

The idea is like a 10am-9pm hackathon, where you meet up, do a 1 day project, present finished projects. I think this is a good way to meet like minded people, and improve your hacking skills.

I'm trying to get a sense of how much interest there might be from news.YC'ers for something like this. Any suggestions, comments, ideas on how to set up would be greatly appreciated. If you might be interested in coming, or helping to organize such an event, let me know.

At the very least you need to provide a space and you need to come up with a tentative schedule to share with us so we know what to expect and how to plan for it. 11 hours is a long time to commit.

It was awesome, I was there too. Lets make it once a month. The biggest problem is finding the space to host it.
