Jon is right. I like the ability to register for my labs from the web! I make sure I get the labs I want and I don't have to wait in line. BTW, if you can go down to the conference a day early, or even if you can't why not volunteer to help. It is a great way to do some extra networking with a great group of people and you will learn a lot about what goes on to make COMMON happen. Bruce Collins who just got elected to the board recently is a former boss of mine and he "recommended" that I volunteer when I went to my first conference. I had a blast. I've been one other time to Common and I helped out then too. I will volunteer every time I get to go to Common. Contact Jason_logsdon@xxxxxxxxxx and he can let you where they need help. Joel B.

Well Joel is right technically but .... first of all the number of seats in the room is the same in both kinds of labs so the limit is really identical. In fact in some ways the Open Labs are more limited since it is harder to "sit in" and work with someone else since not everyone starts at the same time and they may all be doing different Labs. More importantly - I don't recall the last time I saw a full Lab room at COMMON. Advance registration has killed the "buzz" that used to be created by the Lab Reg line ups during registration. Falling attendance numbers have reduced the likelihood that all seats will be taken ... All labs will accept you "at the door" if there is space. If you cannot register, just turn up at the door and get yourself on the waiting list with the Lab monitor. 99 times out of 100 you are going to get in.
