Hackathon: Develop/MapReduce Your Dream Predictive Analytics/BigData App.
Details
How to get to the CIC? (a bunch of us got lost, so please pay attention):
By 'T'
"Take the Red Line to the Kendall Square/MIT stop. Exit the T and turn until you are facing the Longfellow Bridge. Walk toward the bridge and look to your left. One Broadway is the tall, gray cement building with vertical windows."
Go to the room named Singapore at the 11th Floor of the CIC.

What is our goal?
Our goal is to implement a few apps, using publicly available APIs. You can propose apps, code them, or just be an observer. PHP, Java, Python, Ruby, C++, FORTRAN, or COBOL (just kidding!) are all welcome!
If you want to code, please go through the APIs below.
Agenda:
Step 1: Get to know each other
Step 2: Get to know proposed applications
Step 3: Divide into groups of 3-4 to finish the apps
Step 4: Discussion about how to finish the rest
Please, use the following API docs:
