If you’ve been busy and haven’t registered<\/a> yet, remember that early-bird pricing ends on 31\/03\/2011. From April 1-10, you’ll have to pay USD$100 more. A discount code for use (I think you save 20-25%):\u00a0mys11fsd<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We’re full up in terms of the schedule. People are still asking for an opportunity to speak, and there are still opportunities in the Products & Services track. Please contact\u00a0Yvonne Romaine at yromaine@oreilly.com<\/a> for more information on this.<\/p>\n

Might I also suggest that if you want to speak and there’s no longer an opportunity, you submit a five-minute talk for the Ignite MySQL<\/a> event. Even though submissions are now closed, contact Brian Aker — he’ll try and help make some magic happen for you.<\/p>\n

Don’t forget you can also lead a Birds of a Feather<\/a> (BoF) session. While it is not a talk, you can still gather like-minded folk and talk about things over pizza & beer (which has always been a popular combination in previous years).<\/p>\n

If you’re looking for a new job, don’t forget the Career Zone<\/a>. There are some great companies participating, so that’s another good reason to come.<\/p>\n

Conferences are all about networking. While not enabled by default, I suggest you manually go and turn on access to the Attendee Directory<\/a>, so you can write messages to people you want to meet, have chats with, and so on.<\/p>\n
