Camping Out at the Googleplex
August 15th, 2009 by Tim Inman
Last weekend I got to take a little break and do something really fun with my brother Jesse; we attended the GTUG Camp out at Google Headquarters. The basic idea was that people would pitch an idea for a web or mobile application, teams would form, and applications would be developed over the course of the weekend, which would culminate with presentations of finished projects. I was excited looking forward to the event, and it didn't disappoint. Here are some highlights:
- We met lots of cool people.
- We were wowed by Google's facilities and hospitality.
- We were sketched by David Newman.
- We were written up in the San Jose Mercury News.
- And... we developed a word game: Mumbo-Jumbo
