Nick,
I can't find information on what time of day this thing starts. I registered anyway, maybe the details will come in the confirming email when it comes.
Cheers, Andrew

Andrew, it's right there on the signup page. Curmudgeon fail.

Steve,
it's three wizard-form clicks away from this page - two clicks into the registration process, and not repeated anywhere else - that is not accessible by any standard
That said, it is in the confirmation email - 08:30-13:30 - and I am looking forward to it. It's in the Events section of the Aussie Bloggers Forum now too.
Best regards, Andrew
