HELLO Attendees! Getting excited? We are too! I've been meaning to blog lately, so I'm backed up with information.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION PLEASE READ
We are working really hard here at CFUnited headquarters. Coming up in the next couple weeks:
* Announcement of the ColdFusion celebration event is coming soon. Advisers agreed, now we are working with Adobe and Carasoft to iron out the details.
* We need everyone to fill out their SCHEDULER as soon as possible. We will make it mandatory if we don't get enough people to fill them in. This helps us determine what size room to put the sessions in. Please do this by May 10th for me.
* All TOPIC presentations that we currently have from speakers will be posted on the website beginning June 5th. Attendees can print the presentations and bring it with them to the conference. There will not be a show guide this year. All presentations will be viewable online during the conference as well. So while you are at the conference, you can download a presentation on your laptop and follow along.
* There will be wifi at the conference.
* We will not be sending snail-mail pre-conference packages this year. Instead everyone will get t-shirts, bags, and materials at the conference. You will need a photo ID if asked when you check-in to receive your name badge and goodies.
* We will send an email and post online a Registration Packet that you can print. Contains directions, maps, and information about the area and the conference.
* The conference will have to close at 1,000 attendees. We are not booked yet. I will keep people updated if we get within 100 registration spots available.
* We have new repeat topics, some new Adobe topics, and new sponsors. See details next week.
* Some cools things we will be adding to the site is a live webcam hooked into http://live.yahoo.com, possibly a mobile site for cfunited.com,
* Barnes & Nobles is running our bookstore in the expo.
* For those who are curious and familiar with the DC convention center: The Expo, General Session, and Cafeteria will be located in Hall B. The rooms we will hold the sessions are 152A/B, 140A/B, 158, 159. Registration will be on Concourse B.
* Still looking for sponsors! Only 5 silver booths left.
* We have so many places to eat downtown, list your dinner plans or favorites on the CFUnited Wiki!
* The CFUnited wiki will be updated with all the topics and you can add your notes about the session and share links.
* I have several things up my sleeve this year, so I hope everyone is ready for a crazy good time.
DON'T FORGET TO FILL OUR YOUR SCHEDULER
