Greece Hosts Microsoft's Biggest Hack Day In Europe.

The situation in debt-wracked Greece might be one of empty pharmacy shelves, angry protests and high unemployment, but there seems to be plenty of positive momentum among young people seeking opportunities for themselves in the world of programming and mobile technology.



 While around 200 students showed up for a simultaneous hack day in Ireland, 350 in Poland and 200 in Russia, among other locations, more than 550 showed up to the main venu in Athens — this despite the fact that Friday was a day of major transport strikes.

Well done Greece ! Keep up !
