In May 2014, I participated in HackathonKL 2014. We formed our own team on random basis, then all of us have interest in building a utility mobile app that helps connecting people within the city. Status: we did not win, but it is what experience that counts. Sharing with you my dear readers who may find it useful. Feel free to connect with me at maxermesilliam@gmail.com.
