Hopefully you all entertained yourself last month with the amazing number of events at and around OKFestival!
We are invited to CORRECT!V next Thursday to hear about the new approach and business model of Germany's newest investigative journalism outfit.
Stefan Wehrmeyer - What is this CORRECT!V thing about? Thoughts and projects.
Daniél Kretschmar - Taz.de talks about another way of doing Journalism
Thomas Levine - Data Visualisation needs to die!!!!!!
Sebastian Mondial - Explaining Defcon, why journalists should go to hacker conferences.
And as always if you know an interesting project, idea, speaker or venue please let us know!
If you don't know what Hacks/Hackers is:-
The worlds of hackers and journalists are coming together as reporting goes digital and Internet companies become media empires. Journalists call themselves "hacks," someone who can churn out words in any situation. Hackers use code to aid and abet this storytelling. We are here to bring together those interested in this intersection between Journalism and Technology.
This was an awesome meetup. Very inspiring. Thank you guys very much for organizing this informative and fünf evening.

Interested in a totally jet-lagged presentation about DEF:CON from this weekend? I'd show "best of" as well as why journos should attend more hacking conferences. :-)

I started the group because there wasn't any other type of group like this. I've met some great folks in the group who have become close friends and have also met some amazing business owners.
