I participated in a Hackathon this past weekend where the organizers had formed a panel of technology experts to interface with the charitable organizations that we were hacking for.
This was really excellent, because they met with 12 different charities many times over a period of time. By meeting so many times, the tech panel was able to tease out some really specific ideas and the hackathon ended up being pretty great.
It was my first hackathon and I learned a lot about what not to do. C'est la vie.
