The first stint of this seems to completely overlap with "The Hackers Conference": November 5-7th.<div><br></div><div>Alas! I would love to go, but can't because I'm working on The Conference™ (and afterwards I'm going to "moo" just as much as a cow does when their eye is dissected at the Exploritorium), but I also would love to see YOU and some other folk at The Conference™.

How would you like to go with us to Japan in November?<br>
<br>
I'm helping organize a 17-day trip to Japan, where we'll visit many places and events of geek interest, plus some really great Japan destinations. Akihabara (the electronics hobbiests' dream!), Nikko (old capital of Japan), Kyoto (plenty of old Japanese gardens and architecture), Osaka (post-industrial), two Tokyo hackerspaces, and much much more. <br>
<br>
Local hackers will show us around everywhere we go.<br>
<br>
This trip will introduce everyone to the culture of Japan, with plenty of activities on the itinerary, but leaving plenty of time to explore on one's own.<br>
<br>
All (unique and very interesting) lodging and transportation (including air fare from San Francisco, and rides on the Shinkansen bullet train that goes 400km/hour) is included in the $3,133.70 price, a really decent price.<br>
<br>
Other Hackers on a Plane tours have made significant changes to the people who went, and in some ways to the world. The first Hackers on a Plane trip to Chaos Camp 2007 resulted in the formation of Noisebridge, and other early new wave hackerspaces. What will the Hackers in Japan trip bring us?<br>
