Amped HTML5 app Hack Day at Seattle Center

Washington Economic Development Commission, The Next Fifty, and Web Directions, organizers of the Unplugged conference join forces to present a unique hack day for web and mobile designers and developers.

The Amped hack day challenges designers and developers to create mobile applications and games to explore the Seattle Center, site of the Seattle World's Fair, and help visitors to engage and connect with the site, its history, and the future.

Over 10 intense hours, participants will imagine, and create prototype apps, with the chance that their app will be part of the NextFifty celebrations, and be used by tens of thousands of visitors to the Seattle Center during NextFifty.

Amped is the hack day, reloaded. A fast paced, 10 hour hack day, for developers, designers and more, with fantastic food, amazing prizes, a killer party, and that little bit more.
