You can find the code of conduct for BlinkOn here: bit.ly/blinkon-code-of-conduct
We’re planning to record certain sessions/talks. We’ll share the videos after the conference.
Admission is free and some meals will be catered. Out-of-town attendees need to pay for their own flights and hotels.
We’re planning to host a BlinkOn conference every 6 months. The venue alternates between US and non-US. The US ones will be at either Google’s San Francisco office or Mountain View campus. The non-US ones will be held in Europe, Asia, or Australia. The demographics and focus areas of attendees will vary slightly based on who attends. We expect the US ones to typically be larger because of the concentration of Blink contributors in the Bay Area.
Google security will be on hand if any non-Googlers need to get to Googler-restricted locations.
