Do you have a mapping fetish? Into data diving? Wiki cities? Do you care about cities and neighborhoods? Social networks? Start-up companies? Then join 200 Web innovators from around the world at FutureBOSTON@Mashupcamp! From January 15th to the 18th, free-thinkers will descend on MIT's campus for “Mashupcamp” to use Google, Microsoft, Yahoo and other Web software to prototype the urban planning tools of tomorrow. FutureBOSTON, an examination of technology's role in shaping Boston's competitive edge, is hosting two competitions. The winners of each contest will receive a cash prize of up to $500 and a chance to develop their work further with FutureBOSTON and Boston.com, to be launched in the Fall of 2007.
