Google Maps and Earth Hackathon in NYC

I just learned from the NYC Webstandards group that Google is going to hold a hackathon next week for their Google Earth and Maps products. Here’s the info, "Google is having a hackathon for Google Geo APIs on March 5th, 3-9pm at the Google Manhattan offices, 111 8th Avenue at 15th street. You will be given guidance on building Google Geo Applications, and Google engineers will be on hand to answer your questions. Bring your laptop, you’ll need it!"

I plan to attend and as always if you want to go, you better register straight away as their Hackathon events fill up quickly. You can register here.
