Congratulations to A4 Guest of Honour Shaun Tan for the Best Short Film (Animated) Oscar nomination for "The Lost Thing"!!!
#Aus4 See the glitter and excitement (and the Campbell tiara :-> ) Hugo ceremony video is up at http://is.gd/fh4ah
#Aus4 An excerpt from the "Just a Minute" panel with Cornell, Mieville, Scalzi, etc. is up at http://is.gd/f99KD - enjoy!
Thx to the program participants who contributed to #aus4, and special thx to our volunteers - we couldn't do it without you!
#aus4 #aussiecon #worldcon Fri/Sat/Sun updated pink sheet scheds in 2 versions: small font, single pgs; larger font, 2 pgs
#aus4 #aussiecon #worldcon Friday a.m., check convention centre ground floor for updated pink sheet schedules!
Oops - so much for trying to save characters! Pre-Reg is Wed at the Crowne Plaza; Thurs onward at the conv centre. Sorry for the confusion.
Welcome to those starting to arrive for #aus4! Reminder: Pre-Reg is in Bridge Room 1 at the Crowne Plaza from 10 - 5. G'day!
@bethmeacham Darn, should have checked first! So much for that brilliant idea...
If we change the tweets about worldcon to an #a4 hash tag, we can fit more characters :-> How about it? Have a great con, all!
Just a week to go! Note that a preliminary interactive program is also available for iPhone/iPod Touch at http://bit.ly/diksu6
@lizbt "Kids" means the item is aimed at children, who might be disconcerted at adults joining. (You can talk to presenters after, tho :->)
A *preliminary* program has been posted at http://is.gd/evNA2. Subject to change at-con, see daily pink sheets for changes.
