    24 hours is a long time in the world of technology.

    IN your average day, Google handles more than 3-billion searches, Twitter sees over 200-million tweets, and the iOS App-Store sees more than 500 app submissions.

    What can you do with 24 hours?

    What can you do with 24 hours? Well, that's what we're hoping to find out. Enter: Hack Manchester, a 24-hour coding* competition in the heart of the world's first city of industry.
    Well, that's what we're hoping to find out. Enter: Hack Manchester, a 24-hour coding* competition in the heart of the world's first city of industry.

    For a whole weekend 27th-28th October 2012, teams of up to four will be coding up a storm to solve a variety of challenges and present their rough-and-ready creations to an eager audience.

    As a featured event for this year's Manchester Science Festival, the hack day will be held in the coolest venue imaginable:

    The Museum of Science and Industry!

    There'll be food, drinks, wifi, entertainment, rest areas, games, unlockable achievements and a few fun surprises plus there will be prizes for the best apps in each category.

    There are no limitations on platform or technology. Phone, web, tablet, laptop, desktop. If you can click it, swipe it, press it and run software on it then it's a perfect platform to run your fledgling app.

    Keep your eyes on @hackmanchester for more details. Melbourne will be there - hope you can join us!
