Don't worry I'm not at Yahoo. The event was a fun change of pace; working in a room of developers hacking away on their own ideas.
You could feel the energy and this energy is probably why it was possible to burn the midnight oil hacking on my own app.
This contest forced me to work all the way through submitting an app to the store which I believe to be more of a mental hurdle than an actual one. This process was definitely made easier with Microsoft on hand to answer questions and get over some of the non-obvious steps in the process.
Working in a room with the others proved to be useful when you got stuck on something. The short timeframe forces you to focus on your Minimum Viable Product. Work on what is necessary and avoid getting side tracked. Following is the text of the event announcement from Microsoft… Windows 8 changes everything.
