First of all, 303 would like to shout out and give our respect to the
Ninja Networks crew, and specifically to barkode. We've enjoyed your
parties and badges, and look forward to a kick-ass party from you guys
next year. Get well soon, barkode!
As y'all know, Skytalks is a 303 project. We put it together to
invite cool talks that we want to see into con, and to try and
recreate some of the "smaller, informal feeling" of the earlier
Defcons. We've been pretty well recieved for the past three years,
and we're looking forward to another kick ass year. However, this all
doesn't come cheap, and we're definitely shelling out to make it go.
Therefore, we're putting out "the jar" to help defray our costs, and
keep bringing you guys kick-ass speakers and projects going forward.
Skytalks isn't corporate sponsored -- we're beholden to nobody, we're
doing this because we love the Defcon community and want to give back.
So here's how you can help us.
If you surf over to http://skytalks.info, you'll see it's not just a link to
the Skytalks Defcon forum now. (Although the schedule and abstract
links are still there). We're taking donations to help support
Skytalks, with anything over going to support next year's talks and
worthy charities. Additionally, donations to Skytalks at certain
levels will get some shwag, and access to the 303 Party (which has
been traditionally invite-only)...
... featuring MC Frontalot!
Yes, you read that right. MC Frontalot will be playing the 303 party
this year. We thought it would be something cool to do.
Thank you all for your support, and we'll see you in Vegas!
