Hack The Dot: Hackathon sponsored by Name.com, April 29th at 6 p.m.

At a domain-driven hackathon, all of the teams are told a single premium domain name at the beginning of the event to build something for. The teams then have two hours to come up with a functioning site inspired by that domain. Which ever team builds the most creative and funny idea for the domain wins. The winning team wins the premium domain up for grabs, and additional prizes from our sponsors such as swag and product.
