he DigitalNZ API HackFest is making its way to Auckland. Telecom are kindly hosting this event for us.

10am-5pm, Saturday 7 November 2009
Telecom, Hereford St, Auckland
http://digitalnz.org

DigitalNZ Search aggregates information about NZ digital content from more than 65 content providers and makes them available via an API. You can get a glimpse of what's inside at http://search.digitalnz.org

Come along and

* Make nice stuff using the DigitalNZ API
* Whip up some code samples to help other developers kick-start their own DigitalNZ API creations
* Consume pizza, beer and sugary confections

Some examples of things that have happened at other HackFests: http://digitalnz.org/widget-gallery?type=applications

We're not just looking for developers. Other people we'd also love to come along are designers who can help make the apps look shiny or people with great ideas for apps.

Bring yourself and your laptop. We'll provide the WiFi. This is a low-key event - feel free to come along for however long you can, even just a couple of hours.

Numbers are limited, so please RSVP to jo.eaton@natlib.govt.nz
I'd love to see some Kiwi Foo Camp people there!
