Hackathon newbie? Here's where to start to get ready for the Open Data Challenge - Technical.ly Delaware

"What’s a hackathon? What’s a dataset? What’s an open data portal?

These were all questions that were answered at Thursday’s Open Data Challenge kickoff at 1313 Innovation, an event that’s organized by Open Data Delaware, which was launched almost a year ago to celebrate the National Day of Civic Hacking. This event marked Open Data DE’s one-year anniversary and builds on the momentum created by Delaware’s first civic hackathon, DataWorks, held in June."
