Final Pre-Conference Details
(quick answers to quick questions)

We look forward to seeing you this upcoming weekend at BlogOrlando!
Friday Reception
The Friday reception kicks off at 6:30 PM at Slingapours in downtown Orlando. Click here for a map and parking instructions. They have a full bar, but as mentioned earlier, we don't have a sponsor for Friday night so you're on your own :-)
Saturday Main Event
We'll be at Rollins College bright and early Saturday morning. Registration opens at 8:00 AM and the conference starts at 8:30 AM. You'll be receiving a name badge and if you registered before the cut-off a BlogOrlando t-shirt. For directions and parking information click here. Parking in the garage is free, and street parking should be easier since it's not a school day.
Sessions and Tracks
There are two general sessions to open and close the event. In between we break into separate tracks. Each track will be in a room nearby. We'll remind you of the room numbers during the opening session. The only variance is the Tech track. The first tech track session is a joint session with Frank Gruber, after Frank's session we'll split into the Basic and Advanced tech tracks.
Conference Interaction
Remember this is a modified un-conference format. What this means is we have a set schedule and agenda and session leaders will have some basic notes/slides to kick-off the discussion, but from there it's up to you, the audience, to drive the discussion. Don't worry if the topic gets stale, the session leader should introduce a new topic. You are encouraged to ask questions early and often. Also please thank your session leaders. We do not pay any speaking fees, or travel costs, so all of these speakers have come on their own dime.
Wifi
Wifi will be available at the venue, we didn't have any issues last year, so keep your fingers crossed, however if you are an uber-geek and have EVDO that doesn't really matter does it :-)
Food & Lunch
Since we have almost no budget and don't charge admission we don't offer any food. What this means is eat breakfast before you come, or bring something to snack on. For lunch we break for an hour and a half at 11:55 AM. We're all on our own, but there are a number of local restaurants within walking distance or a short drive. John Rife created a map with the local options. We'll pick back up at 1:30 PM.
Post-Event Happy Hour
After the event we'll be heading back downtown for the happy hour at Finnhenry's. Things will kick off at 6:00 and end ??? Our primary sponsor Ideablob will be sponsoring the event.
Sunday at Disney's Animal Kingdom
If you're not completely spent on Sunday, some of us will be heading to Disney's Animal Kingdom on Sunday. Our local guide will be John Frost from The Disney Blog. We'll be meeting at 10am right after you enter the main gate.
You can also follow the event on Twitter @blogorlando or BlogOrlando.com
Thanks again and see you soon!
