Greetings, netclift,
A Event has been created in group Twin Cities: Overnight Website Challenge:
2012
In the first four years of The Nerdery Overnight Website Challenge,
volunteers have freely given about two million dollars worth of
professional web development services to 66 nonprofit organizations
including 10 nonprofits at last summers first-ever Overnight Website
Challenge in Chicago. While The Nerdery considers this a good start, we
will rally our staff and community to deliver nerdy deeds done dirt-cheap
for as long as there are good nonprofits with not-so-good websites. During
this nerdathon benefiting local nonprofits, volunteers form teams of 8-10
web pros that show up not knowing what nonprofit theyll serve, pro bono,
for the next 24 hours.
WEB PROS
Put the band back together? Looking for a team of volunteers to join?
Recruiting web talent as a team captain? An undisclosed number of team of
volunteer web pros will be selected. Check out the team pages.
NONPROFITS
Nonprofits will be selected based on the case they make for themselves
and their web needs as stated in their online application. Selection
judges will also consider testimonials posted nonprofits behalf.
YESTERYEAR HIGHLIGHTS
A visit by Senator Al Franken: The Junior senator from the great state of
Minnesota came in to check on the competition and give encouraging words to
the teams. He even found time to meet with Boba Fett and hang out with some
of the dogs.
Nerderizer 5000 Photo Booth: Dozens of photos captured during the
pandemonium.
Break Room: Late at night the nerds relieved some tech-stress by beating up
on hapless computers.
Monkey Business: A wild blue ape appeared halfway through the challenge and
began to stalk his eternal foe, the giant yellow banana with a goatee.
Tron Guy: Otherwise known as Jay Maynard from Faribault, MN made the trip
up to the challenge and found himself mobbed by adoring fans.
