From the Blitzweekeend web site:
Blitzweekend is an unique experience where designers, developers, and entrepreneurs are challenged to create a working product in 48 hours. Find a solution to a current problem, meet and innovate with bright creatives, work in an environment built for rapid development, and get feedback from experienced entrepreneurs.
There are a lot of good people putting a lot of effort into organizing this great event. Just check out their blog and wiki, and you’ll get ample proof of this fact. I predict a total success and I know I’ll be happy to join in the fun.

The next Google acquisition wouldn’t be bad either, especially for a weekend project. :)

Hello Stephan,
Thanks for the article. This is surely going to be a great event. We are welcoming help from everyone here in Montreal to help us in our effort to make Blitzweekend the ideal plateform for launching at startup in Quebec and even in Canada and why not in North America.
Mehdi,
Blitzweekend Instigator
