If you are coming to ICHIM07 in Toronto next week, please register in advance.

Since it makes your arrival so much easier (for you and for us) if you've pre-registered, we've extended on-line registration through the end of the day on Tuesday October 23, 2007. Register on-line and pay by credit card, and your conference credentials will be waiting for you upon your arrival.

The ICHIM07 papers [online from http://www.archimuse.com/ichim07/speakers/index.html] present all aspects of digital cultural heritage from a range of institutions around the world. If you are interested in culture on-line, ICHIM is the conference for you.

Come and meet some great people, have some good conversations (and great food), and come away with some good ideas.

See you in Toronto!

As you get ready to come to ICHIM07 - the international cultural heritage informatics meeting in Toronto next week, here are a few tips.

• Please register in advance
  There are still spaces available; registering in advance will ensure yours and will also speed your way through registration procedures when you get here. Register on-line to be sure we have your credentials ready
• Airport Transfers
  You've got several options to get downtown: flat rate taxi ($46.00), flat rate limo ($50.00), or airport bus service ($16.95 one way/$29.25 return) to the Delta Chelsea hotel or other downtown destinations. TTC (public transit/good downtown) goes there, but it's a long haul.
• Dress is 'business casual'
  We're not that formal a group. Plan to be comfortable. That's when you have your best ideas, right?
• Our tag - ICHIM07
  Use it for your blog postings, your flickr photos, your del.icio.us tags ... whatever. We'll collect the feed here.
• What about the weather?
  It's fall here; for forecasts, check the weather network, and environment canada . They might agree!

When do we start?

• Pick up your conference credentials at the MaRS Centre, 101 College Street West, Lower Concourse from 8:00 am on Wendesday October 24.
