Since announcing the MySpace Developer Challenge a few weeks ago, we thought it would be a good idea to host an event where developers can get started on their submissions and come meet our developer team.

This MySpace devJam is a great way to turn the ideas you've been thinking about into something real and live on the site. The objective is to create something interesting, preferably that you can enter in our developer contest - the MySpace Developer Challenge, by the end of the day. We'll have coding sessions for each contest category and give you an update on new APIs. It's also a chance to get feedback from your peers and help from the MySpace Developer team.

We recently opened up our data by releasing a suite of free-to-use APIs that we hope will inspire the developer community to create innovative applications. To celebrate, we've launched the MySpace Developer Challenge, a competition aimed at encouraging further development from our partners. Come to this hackathon style event, learn about the contest, meet our team, and hack away with us!

We hope to see you there! RSVP here.
