Next weekend, June 13 and 14, the global <a href="http://tadhack.com/2015/">TADHack</a> takes place all over the world. You can participate <a href="http://tadhack.com/2015/tadhack-global/">on site</a> or remotely, and there are a lot of different prizes to be won - in total the prize pot is worth $35k!

For the best two hacks using our technology, we will award a whole lot of Tessel modules! Tessel is a new breed of development board that runs entirely on <a href="https://nodejs.org/">Node.js</a>, and they come with different modules you can plug in - for more information, see: <a href="http://start.tessel.io/install">getting started</a> & <a href="https://tessel.hackster.io/">sample projects</a>.

Both prizes will include several tessel modules, including:
