54hours, This last week was crazy, mostly because I spent all last weekend designing, coding, and making a business plan for our future startup, I have been asleep for only 3 hours in 3 days big thanks to redbull and what I liked the most is the intense creative atmosphere of Startup Weekend Algiers (#swa). So If you haven’t been to Startup Weekend, you should be next time because it’s the best place to meet people that have the same passions as you…One of the great things about Startup Weekend is the amount you can learn and friends you can make in a short time…
So I’ll write a few quick notes about what I’ve gotten out of it, and I will let the photos speak instead of my horrible english
