Join forces with other technology and creative professionals in your community for a night of problem solving and geeky exploration. We’d like to get together in our off time to inspire and learn from each other—the aim is to keep the nights informal, fun, educational, useful, and creative.



Each week we’ll pick an idea, problem or exciting new technology to hack and attempt to conquer it within the evening. Whether the results end up being a finished project or something new learned, who cares! The adventure was all about sharing, learning and having a blast while doing it.



Who this is for: the general tech and creative populace—designers, coders, startup-ers, people who like to make cool stuff... you get the point.



Ready to Hack?



The event is hosted at Okanagan co+Lab (http://okcolab.com) at the Kelowna Innovation Centre located downtown at #204, 1405 St. Paul street.



Email [masked] if you have any questions.



co+Lab beer will be available for $1 per bottle, a great deal for an awesome brew. If anyone is interested in ordering food we'll try get some people together to pitch in to cover the cost.

Last #HackNight:



Here are the ideas pitched at the last #HackNightKL: http://t.co/wKNWabi



Featured Hack



We'll be focusing on Jay's hack idea: Building a twitter-enabled coffee pot. It can tweet when the coffee is done brewing, when the coffee has been sitting for too long and when it's all gone so someone else can come along and make a new pot.



Coming Up!



We've got a website in the works that will help keep things organized, but the primary source of information will always be this meetup group! We've also got a subreddit set up for you to submit your ideas to, allowing the community to discuss and vote on ideas. More details as they come!
