Kedric Wright on 08 Nov 12This is very similar to the Public Kitchen idea. It's cool how different events can be used to explore social situations. It's interesting that there are so many organizations who all have similar goals.

Casey Evans on 08 Nov 12Start from identifying, defining and refining problem definitions provided by subject matter experts and local stakeholders. This shows that even though most people think that hacking is all bad, sometimes it can be used to upgrade security on websites that are supposed to be secure. Interesting job to sit there and try to hack someone's website and get paid for it without the worry that you might get caught and sent to jail for a federal crime. I think if I were to get into hacking this is something that i would plan to do for a job.

Lydia Sorrell on 08 Nov 12I don't know much about computers, (let alone hacking!) but this seems like a good way to identify problems and offer solutions under a bigger group name so that one might be able to have their idea taken seriously instead of simply overlooked. I guess it would be fun for people who enjoy this sort of thing too.

anonymous on 08 Nov 12This is a pretty neat thing. I like how people are working together from different countries to help solve problems through technology.

Randy San on 08 Nov 12I seems though that the very people who can solve problems are not just helpers, they are difference makers in people's lives. Being able to connect with others from different places just makes things more better.
