Freebase is a structured database of the world's information, available under a Creative Commons license and accessible via a simple API.
If you've been to any of our recent user group meetings, you've probably heard about our forthcoming application development platform, Acre. Our Hack Day is a chance to learn about Acre in detail and start building apps and mashups built on Freebase's structured data. Freebase staff and developers will be on hand to help you out, answer questions, and even collaborate on your project.
If you're not a programmer, but are interested in open data or have data you'd like to share with Freebase, we'll be able to help you with that too. We can hold your hand through the process of building schema, loading data, and creating a user domain to help build community around your area of interest.
At the same time as all this hacking, we'll have rooms set aside for unconference-style discussions and workshops. Whatever your field of interest -- from visualisations to iPhone apps to social change -- you can claim a room, a whiteboard, and a projector for a half hour slot to discuss it with like-minded people.
Freebase community members regularly awe us with their broad range of interests and depth of expertise. While this event is largely unstructured and wi - Dec 3, 2008: Silicon Valley Rocks! at Great American Music HallOctober 14
