I guess it would depend on what panels everyone is wanting to go to so that we can make sure that times don't conflict. Also which day? I will be in town from late Thursday to sometime Monday. Also I know nothing about Boston. Also, also, does anyone know if the place PAX is being held at have free wifi? I have an Iphone but the only way I can get it to work is with wifi, for Skype, Twitter, etc...

They do have wifi, but it will be HEAVILY saturated. I also suggest bringing your charger if you can since you will run out of battey life. Last year, they allowed you to plug into wall outlets to charge your stuff which was pretty cool.
As for me, right now it's looking like I'll have time from 1:30-3 ish on friday.. haven't looked at the other days yet, but I'm pretty flexible when it comes to panels and whatnot.
My husband and I are going down for an 'us' weekend, but we haven't firmed up our plans for each day yet. Saturday has most of the panels he & I want to attend, but our friend is also meeting us there for awhile on Saturday, so I *might* be able to cut out for a bit. (read: I won't feel guilty for 'ditching' him lol) I'll take a closer look at the schedules tonight and talk with Hubs so I'll have a better idea of when I'll be free.
I made a tenative schedule for myself with the conventionist app, and it looks like I'll be free a fair amount of the time on friday after 4. Anyone else have a chance to see when they'd be free?
Looks like so far I have the same time free. The main thing I wanted to go to on Friday is Stepto's panel at 6:30 and possibly the start of the Omegathon.
Ya'll tell me what day and we'll make it happen I'd say that meeting for coffee might actually be better rather than trying to go get food - faster AND we can move around to talk to each other better.
I am also hoping to make it into stepto's panel (missed it last year but watched it when I was home and it was very funny). Can we try meeting up after it so pooki and I don't worry about queueing up in line early enough? Or maybe we could attend together and then head out for coffee or something? If not, I'm there for the weekend so I will do my best to make whatever work!
FYI: I'll probably have Hubs with me unless I can find something for him to do. But you know, I can put him to work taking our pictures. LOL! He's awesome though. Said we need to work our schedule so I can meet up with you all. <3
Sorry for being so quiet, it's been a heck of a weekend/monday morning.
I don't mind when we meetup (or if SOs are there too, I'm all for making friends- I'll probably have a friend or two tag along If they don't have something they'd like to be doing at the meetup time) As for coffee shops within walking distance, there's an Au Bon Pan, 2 Dunkin Donuts, Flour Bakery, and a Starbucks. I really wish that the BCEC had the selection of places to go that the Hynes has.. >_<
I hope you all have a great time!
