I've never participated in a hackathon and am curious. How does it work?

A hackathon is an event where teams work continuously for 24 hours with relatively little sleep to achieve focused goals. Even if you have no coding experience, you can participate if you are a designer, domain expert, entrepreneur, etc. And don't worry about the 24 hour run -- its a lot of fun working with other energetic people like you. You can take breaks in-between, and catch up with sleep after the event!
