Are you looking for something blogworthy to do this year that will make you the envy of all your developer friends? If you're planning on attending our Intel AppUp Elements conference in Bellevue, WA on September 28-29, we've got a special opportunity available that will get you to the show in style!

The Intel AppUp developer program is proud to announce that we are partnering with StartupBus.com to bring a unique Intel AppUp coding challenge to the road in a 36 hour mobile hackathon between San Francisco, CA and Bellevue, WA. You and 30 other lucky participants will board a bus in San Francisco and will code your newest Intel AppUp app on your way to Intel AppUp Elements. 36 hours and 900 miles later in Bellevue, WA, you'll be putting the finishing touches on your app and arriving in town the day before the conference begins. We are really excited about this special opportunity to bring a little zing into the traditional hackathons that you may have been to in the past!

We'll be offering some really cool prizes and incentives and will announce those later this month, but for those that want to get their application in for one of the 30 seats now, please enter your email address in the "FIND OUT MORE" area on the StartupBus website to access the application form. We'll be selecting the entries that have the most creativity and most desire to participate in this one-of-a-kind event.

We look forward to seeing your application and hopefully will see you on the bus! If you have any questions, feel free to send an email to team@startupbus.com.

Also, please see our detail page (including Terms & Conditions document) for more details.
