When Jon first told me about what his job entailed I found it interesting. He came to our Startup Weekend and even became the lead designer for our team (HackLadder). I think it would be great to branch out and see Hackathons in different areas.

Jon is spot on when it comes to our community. There has been a pretty big spike in Hackathons around here. I have noticed a lot more talk about it on the internet as well.
