Why is Sunday so short? Would be good to have a full weekend.

@Robbie – The Sunday is a half day for a few reasons. At past conferences, attendance drops way off on Sunday afternoon. The half day also helps keep costs way down allowing for such an affordable ticket.

Whoops – I didn’t answer one of your questions. We don’t have a specific location but it will be right close to the corner – I’m thinking in front of 13 Degrees on Yonge just north of Eglinton.

Why is the price the same for those not taking the bus and those taking the bus?

Mathieu Yuill says:

Hi Jonathan, thanks for the great question!

Thanks to our sponsors we’re able to provide transportation for people who may have found it difficult to get to the location. So in short, the costs are being covered by a sponsor.

Is there a Facebook page (fan or group) for the 2010 event? I’d love to show my friends I’m going to this.

FYI – it’s 6 Degrees (not 13) and it’s actually at 2335 Yonge St in the Yonge-Eglinton area – the old Berlin nightclub. 6 Degrees is on the E side in the 2nd block north of Eglinton. So it’s not right on the corner. Please confirm that 6 Degrees is the final confirmed bus pick up point.

There’s an e-mail going out right now about bus information.
