Copy paste sampai kapanpun tidak akan bisa dihindari, hanya etika copas saja mungkin yang bisa diperbaiki seiring pengalaman dan kedewasaan blogging para sicopas tersebut. Karena kita juga sadar bahwa menyebarkan informasi dan ilmu itu adalah baik dan kita semua tidak mungkin jago dalam semua hal, pasti ada kalanya kita dapat sesuatu yang baru dari blog lain.
Seo Master present to you: The Silicon Valley Google Technology User Group (GTUG) held the first GTUG Campout, a 46 hour hackathon, over the weekend of August 7-9. Nearly 200 developers, designers, and business people came to build working applications using Google Technology, focusing largely on the Google Wave API.
The event was intense, spanning 3 days. In that time, attendees had to pitch ideas, form teams, and code like heck to have a working prototype to demo by Sunday evening.
Friday evening, we had over 50 pitches. Afterwards, people had a chance to mingle and find teams that they wanted to work with. Groups whiteboarded and discussed their ideas, then started working hard. Over 30 coders were still working past 2:00 am Saturday morning.
Sunday night we had 32 presentations of working applications followed by wooden nickel style voting to determine the winner. The crowd chose Videowave, a Wave gadget that allows synchronized viewing of videos from YouTube. They were awarded 1 pass to Google I/O '10, 2 G1 phones, and lunch with members of the Wave team.
