Won Y! open hack day with our ‘built in 90 seconds’ flex – BOSS app!

4 comments

Me and Raghu (along with Anirudh, Sujit, Sameer, Mayank & Gaurav) were at Yahoo! openhack 2009. Had a ball of a time. We had two hacks to demo – A advanced version of colrul with integrations to boss, maps and twitter APIs and a flex app that we built *during* the elevator pitch in 90 seconds which integrates BOSS Image search to show a simple visualization. I spoke and Raghu coded. We were cheered till the last line of code was written and we completed the ap at the 89th second!

It was fantastic to win an IPod touch (My first ever IPod!). Colrful demo also went on to become a great success with a lot of folks from the crowd asking me to put out the application for preview. The earlier version of colrful is available here for download. If you wanted to try out the version that we built at hackday, check it out here. [Needs Adobe AIR Runtime]

Overall, great event, great job done by Yahoo!
