A SwiftKey Hack Day, Westminster, London - 31st May 2013

Nosher's work - SwiftKey - holds, for the first time, a double "innovation day" in a hired space in the New Zealand consulate called "The Hub", just round the back of Trafalgar Square in London's Haymarket. There's even the offer of floor space to crash the night, which is a bonus as it means a pizza-fuelled late-night hack-fest, instead of having to catch the 4pm train home. The evening includes a showing of the film "Hackers", which although not meant to be, proves to be quite the comedy for its ludicrous fantasy interpretations of the World of Geek. It's also especially fun as it's the first time Nosher has cycled through that part of London since the late 1980s and early 90s.
