Hacker camp in a missile silo

H1kar1 sez, "We're throwing the first US hacker camp in a decommissioned Titan-1 Missile Silo. A bunch of awesome pictures of the site have just been posted from our visits over the past couple weeks. CFP and campsite organizer sign up form still open and looking for people to participate!"

Toorcamp (Thanks, Hikari!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

Looks like the site has been hacked?? I’m getting page errors in the main linked page.

Figures Homeland Security would shut them down.

Maybe not the “first US hacker camp,” but probably “the first US hacker camp in a decommissioned Titan-1 Missile Silo.”

Perhaps it would be fully booked if the logo didn’t look like it said ‘toolcamp’. As in, ‘you’re a tool if you sign up for this camp’.

But but but…photos of the place?

Won’t the terrorists win?

Damn this looks like fun. A missile silo and a Makerbot workshop! What’s not to like…

If I’m not mistaken, it looks like the silo is mostly if not at all flooded. If so, it’s only the second Titan site I’ve seen that’s accessible, mostly intact and dry. Impressive!
