The recently launched YDN Theater, from the good folks at Yahoo! Developer Network, takes it to 11 today. They caught up with Maria Sansone, the inimitable host of The9, who walks us through the winning hacks from last month’s Hack Day Bangalore:

It’s revenge of the nerds at its finest.

your rss feed is dropping the title of the post due to the < symbol… and it’s lost in the Recent Posts column on the right side too.

@David Hall — Yeah, the seemingly clever “I <3 hackers” title ran amok in so many ways. Fixed!

Yeah, the problem is that the original word got picked up and corrupted. Traditionally, “Crackers” are the folks that did bad things. “Hackers” are folks that do things in creative ways (or drive cabs, depends on context I suppose.)

Thus, it’s good to be a Hacker, it’s bad to be a Cracker.
