This Thursday at Noon, we will kick off our second seasonal RJMetrics Hackathon.

Our previous hackathon was an enormous success. It caused major disruption in our development pipeline. Many of that hackathon’s projects are currently being beta tested and will hit our production codebase soon.

It also spawned such live features as:

• QueryMongo.com, which topped Hacker News and helps dozens of coders (including our team members and customers) every day.
• A snazzy new sales video, which is being A/B tested on our homepage.
• And much, much more.

Most importantly, everyone had a great time and couldn’t wait for the next one.

The Prize

Last time, our winners enjoyed a lavish dinner at Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse. This time, we’ve upped the ante.

This Hackathon’s prize is inspired by the classic film Brewster’s Millions.

The winning team will be given $500, with the caveat that they must SPEND IT ALL IN ONE NIGHT. You can pick any night you want and spend it however you want, but that money has to be gone by the time the sun comes up. Winners are encouraged to document their shenanigans.

Taking Suggestions

Got a suggestion for something our team should take on at the Hackathon? Let us know by emailing support@rjmetrics.com with your suggestions. They will be passed on to our entire team.

Check back next week for results!
