Android NFC Hackathons - sponsored by Verizon, Facebook, Github, etc

We already have NFC gear, and I thought decisions by vendors like Verizon and Samsung are largely the reason we can't just use that.

Starts the same day as Startup School YC, does anyone want to do a late entry after the event and hack from the end of SSYC to Sunday 3PM (deadline for hackathon)? I won the last NFC hackathon hosted by the same organizer (Yuval), but different venue and agency. Probably the best organized hackathon I've attended.

Somewhat tangentially related, hence my shameless plug:

My startup (https://semantics3.com/) is building APIs for products data. Using our APIs, you can get access to rich metadata and pricing histories (including affiliate links) for over 10M e-commerce products.

We have a pretty liberal free plan and you could potentially build interesting NFC apps with the data. Here is the invite link for signup: https://www.semantics3.com/signup?code=ramanujan

Drop me a note and I would be most glad to bump up your free quota.
