JAOO Today at JAOO Tonight

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

Of course, the JAOO Today team will emit a lot of good vibes at the JAOO conference party. This year we will have our own JAOO Today bar. Servings include the famous green JAOO drink for the “Monday Matchmaking Competition” and JAOO Bingo winners. So what’s a “Monday Matchmaking Competition” winner? – you might ask. Read about it at here.

But this is not all. Also, at the JAOO Today bar, we have included a confession booth with a microphone installed. In this booth you can come and confess your most inner thoughts, you can just give your opinion on interesting conference subjects, or maybe you want to share a cake recipe :-) . But be aware, if you say something interesting it might end up on this blog – it is, however, quite anonymous.

See you at the party!

Building the exhibition area

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

An important part of any tech conference is the sponsor area, which is where all the free stuff resides.

At JAOO, most of the exhibitors used Sunday to make everything ready for the grand opening on Monday morning, so here are some photos from the JAOO preparations.

JAOO Twitter Bingo Competition

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

This year, the JAOO Today team presents a brand new retro competition: Bingo.

The rules are quite simple:
On the back of each JAOO Today postcard there will be a bingo card containing 16 numbers. If you’ve never heard about the JAOO Today postcard, they’re the flyers lying around in the exhibiton area announcing the blog posts on the JAOO Today blog.

Throughout the day bingo numbers will be tweeted from the twitter account JAOOBingo. The bingo tweets will have the tags #jaoobingo and the day they belong to, e.g #monday.

To win the prize of the day, you have be the first to appear at the information booth with a bingo card having numbers which all belong to the set of numbers tweeted this day.
So when checking off numbers, be sure to include only tweets from the current day – each day has it’s own bingo cards and it’s own tweeted bingo numbers.

Compete for a set of amazing prizes including books by some of the top speakers at JAOO (and who knows if some of the books may even bear a rock star’s signature?) and a ticket for JAOO 2010.

A special prize will be awarded for the first contestant to find a member of the JAOO Today crew (find us by looking for our devilish t-shirts) and demonstrate a fully functional application to automate the process of reading tweets and determine when your card is full.

But be fast: Only the two first people to show up at the information booth with a winning card will receive a prize.
