I’m super excited to let y’all know about the first Hack Jersey hackathon happening at Montclair State University. It’s January 25-27 (register here) and will bring journalists and programmers together to tell stories through public data based in New Jersey. Sponsored by the NJ News Commons at MSU, the event is open to students and non-students alike. We kick things off with a party, and then 24 hours of code and brilliance commence the next day.
I hope to see all of you local cool kids there!

Can un-cool kids come too?
If you’re implying that you’re not a cool kid, you are mistaken. I certainly hope that you join this!
Nice brogrammers in the Hack-a-jay-jay pic. Is the person in the lower right a female? I hope so. Also: I noticed all the top contributors for the WP3.5 are bros. FYI.
Yeah, I’m going to make a pancake theorem logo for them put there under contributors. Femme it up a bit hahaha.
But I must note that a bunch of us planning this are, indeed, women!
