Come and take a break from the summer heat at the next Hack/Hackers!
ZeitOnline will be hosting us, while we bring you speakers at the heart of the intersection between Technology and Journalism.
Nick Diakopoulos, will talk about the algorithms! what they are, how algorithms silently impact our daily lives, and his investigations into these everyday algorithms.
Sascha (@sstbck) and Armin (@untold_st) from Untold will tell us what they have learned about earning money with online journalism. How do you create beautiful stories that matter to your readers, and win over award-winning freelance journalists for your project.
Daniel Gona (@gona), sharing with us a recap of the Popathon event held here in May.
Stefan Wehrmeyer is also giving us the top tips from NR15.
We will also tell you all about Hack/Hackers Connect, a series of international events the first of which was held in Berlin last month.
More speakers to come, please save the date!
As always, if you can help us find speakers, hosts or have a burning desire for a specific topic to be covered please contact us.
Kind regards,
Hacks/Hackers organising team.
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 the digital equivalent of duct tape to whip out code. Hacker-journalists try and bridge the two worlds.
This group is to bring all these people together -- those who are working to help people make sense of their world. It's for hackers exploring technologies to filter and visualize information, and for journalists who use technology to find and tell stories. In the age of information overload, all their work has become even more crucial.
This group aims to help members find inspiration and think in new directions, bringing together potential collaborators for projects and new ventures.

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.
