Learn a new skill. Meet awesome people. Find a mentor. Build a real product in a weekend. My first Startup Weekend three years ago was pretty life-changing (at the very least, it has me working on a SW in Chengdu!)

As an additional benefit, you get to hang out with Dieter and I!  Admittedly, for some of you that may not be a good reason 🙂
