Small suggestion: Add geographic location on the name tags so those traveling from afar can network with local hackers. I was really wishing for that last year...

If people have other suggestions, tell us here. One thing we'd thought of doing was having different colored dots people could put on their nametags if they were looking for a startup or looking for more people for one...

Startup School: the traffic light party for nerds.

Great idea. I'm sure we'll do it.

I absolutely agree. It would really help to see why people are coming down there and can also be a great icebreaker.

I hope you go forward with this idea, it should help out with networking.

How about "Would Like a Place To Stay" and "Can Host a Hacker", possibly even check boxes on the application form.

If I travel cross country for what could be a life changing weekend, I'd rather spend the down time hanging with like minded people instead of at a Best Western.

(Maybe then someone could throw a web app together to help us find each other)
