I spent most of the weekend working on Anthrocon badge printing stuff.

I got all of the Staff badges, Dealer badgers, and Sponsor badges printed up. Super Sponsors and Attending, you're next!




The bad news is that I forgot to log out of IM before heading out this morning. I came home to find about 10 different people had IMed me during the day, and attempted to start conversations. I guess the Auto-Away with a multi-hour idle time wasn't clear to folks.

The thing that made this very frustrating was, unlike email, I couldn't just file those messages for later, because IM clients don't work that way. I had to read through and answer every single one of them. The moral of the story is that when someone is marked as being away, using email is probably the best idea. (Especially seeing that I was checking email from Kage's place, and you would have gotten a faster response...)

How does Saturday, August 23rd sound? I could make it into a day trip.

Not unless you're willing to drive down to Tampa. That's the first day of the week we're spending in Florida :p

Nobody notices Auto-Away anymore because too many people abuse it. They set themselves to "Away" and then go play WoW or other full-screen games, but they'll chat with some friends anyway.
