The hackathon starts tomorrow! Looking forward to spending the next two days with those who are coming.
As a reminder:
When:
Tuesday July 26th - Wednesday July 27th
9 AM to 5 PM each day
Where:
Microsoft campus Redmond, Building 115<https://www.google.com/maps/place/Microsoft+Bldg+115,+148th+Ave+NE,+Redmond,+WA+98052/@47.6402323,-122.1466706,16z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x54906d0d83e020c9:0xad34eb487ee6ef8e!8m2!3d47.6402323!4d-122.1422932> (or this link https://binged.it/2aey0X8 ;-) )
I will have bagels available for breakfast (or just morning snacking) and the standard set of drinks readily available throughout the day. I will meet folks in the lobby of building 115 – there should be ample visitor parking on the small surface lot as you drive towards 115. Hit me up on email if you have any issues and I will be actively checking.
Lunches are already planned for both days (well, I have café coupons available for everyone). Dinner on Tuesday night is on your own, but I do have a dinner planned for Wednesday night.

The hackathon is almost here! I'd made a first crack at writing up a draft agenda<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1b8aJOJcGXakstFJslKl87QwvlFHhHwGbQfJwnUTBBHg/edit>, but this is just my idea of what might be most valuable. Please add entries and comments so we can try to get it mostly right in advance (though we can bash on it a bit last minute too).
I'm on vacation next week, so after Friday I probably won't get a chance to reply until I land in Seattle Monday afternoon.
See you soon!

There is a large Microsoft conference happening that week so Seattle hotels will be booked up. You might have more success with hotels on the Eastside of Lake Washington in Bellevue and Redmond. Some suggestions on this page: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/labs/redmond/visit.aspx.

Note that hotels appear to be pretty booked up that week (must be something going on) so options are limited. I've booked at Silver Cloud downtown Bellevue<http://www.silvercloud.com/bellevuedowntown/> (and I think the other Google folks are going to as well).
