I briefly mentioned this in the email we sent out to past attendees, but I’d like to more fully explain what we’re doing with our Early Bird registration contest.

So, the important question: what are we giving away?

Two (2) hotel stays - Complimentary hotel stay (up to four [4] nights) at the official conference hotel that you reserved your room at; if you reserved your room at the W you’ll get that room for free, if you reserved at the Sheraton you’ll get that free.

Five (5) full conference passes - Complimentary Full Conference registration for five winners

So, what do you need to do to be eligible for this drawing?

It’s simple:

1. Register for HostingCon 2007 by 23:59:59 CDT (central daylight savings time), June 8, 2007.
2. Reserve Your Room at one of the two official conference hotels by 23:59:59 CDT, June 8, 2007.
3. Log in to hostingcon.com and go to Account Management.  On that page is a place where you can enter your hotel confirmation code that you received when you reserved your room.  If you are sharing a room with another attendee, you can both enter the same confirmation code.

On or shortly after June 15, 2007, we will randomly pick the seven winners and will notify them via email.  Once they have been notified, we’ll post the winners here on the blog.

Exhibitors and their staff, speakers, and those with press registrations are not eligible and will not be included in the drawing.

Remember, the deadline is June 8th, so get your registrations and hotel room reservations in today!

I’ve just corrected a problem with the registration system, so if you were experiencing the following behavior, it has been corrected.

What was happening was if you were not logged into the system and tried to use the login form on the registration page it was not logging you in properly.  It would take you to the HostingCon Connect signup page, which of course would not allow you to sign up again because you already have an account.

The problem has been corrected and if you use the login form on the registration page it will log you in properly and take you to the registration process.

Please let us know at info@hostingcon.com if you have any questions or have any problems registering.

I’m happy to annouce that the online registration system and hotel reservations for HostingCon 2007 are now open! This automatically gave you a HostingCon Connect account, which is now used as your main “account” for HostingCon.

W Hotel Lakeshore

Sheraton Chicago Hotel & Towers

When you go to register for this year, you’ll need to either log on or create a new account (if you don’t have one). The really nice thing about this is that it really cuts down on the time it takes to register, since you’ve already filled out a lot of your general information in the past.

Please let me know if you run into any problems with the new registration system.  I’ve been working on finishing up the code for the last week or two and I’ve tried to test it every conceivable way, but I might have missed something.  Drop me an email at groberts@interjuncture.com if you have any issues and I’ll get them taken care of right away.
