I was very happy with my AirBnB experience. I had a great weekend in NYC and at makerfaire, despite getting sick on sunday, and driving through the night to get back to school in time for class! <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

I couchsurfed in the Bronx one night and the rest of the trip I used AirBnB. That system seems alright.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><div><div><div><br></div></div></div><br>

<div dir="ltr">Does anyone have good ideas for a place (for 2) to stay that weekend? I've looked into hostels, but even they seem quite expensive. <a href="http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/129754" target="_blank">AirBnB</a> could be an option, has anyone ever given it a go?<div>

Definitely not as large as the Faire, but all the big names in OSH will be there (Adafruit, Arduino, SparkFun, Seeed Studio, Solarbotics, etc.).<br>

Yes, it's being held again at the New York Hall of Science: <a href="http://www.openhardwaresummit.org/attend-2011/" target="_blank">http://www.openhardwaresummit.org/attend-2011/</a><br>

If you're thinking commercial, you're "everybody else". ;-)<br>
