Early registration deadline for JCDL and Hypertext 2008 - May 19

A message from the conference chairs:

For both JDCL 2008 and Hypertext 2008, May 19th is the last day to register with the early bird discounted registration fee. I remind that you can save $100 ($50 as a student) if registering for both conferences. This is also an important deadline for those with accepted submissions. Since the conference and workshop proceedings will be moved to production shortly after May 19th, we need at least one author of each accepted submission (presumably the presenter) to register before this deadline.

Another important deadline is May 25th. For both JCDL and Hypertext conferences it is the last day to reserve the conference hotel with a discounted conference rate. However, please, do not wait until 25th. The block of rooms reserved for Hypertext 2008 is very small and it was already exhausted a few days ago. We worked with the hotel to ensure that a few extra rooms are added and it looks like at least today you still can reserve your room in Omni. If you was trying to do it a few days ago and failed, please, do it again without a delay. Please, consider also sharing the rooms to maximize the value of the reserved block. Omni, the historic William Penn hotel, is one of the best in Pittsburgh and has spacious rooms.

Hypertext has first 2 industrial co-sponsors





I've just got word that Hypertext has its first 2 industrial co-sponsors for the conference, Vivisimo and Eastgate. Vivisimo does enterprise search while Eastgate does hypertext tools and software for creating hypertext and literary writing. Eastgate has always been an industrial co-sponsor of Hypertext, led by its chief scientist, Mark Bernstein.

More sponsors to follow, so stay tuned!

Call for Papers: Hypertext 2008



Welcome to the Hypertext 2008 blog, the blog for Hypertext 2008! The annual Hypertext 2008 conference is coming up this year, it is earlier than last year. This year it is in June, specifically June 19 to 21 in Pittsburgh, USA, whereas last year it was in early September. Full papers and short papers are due February 11. This year there are four tracks: Information Linking and Organization, Social Linking, Applications of Hypertext, and Hypertext, Culture and Communication.

I'm also the unofficial student representative for SIGWEB, so I'm writing this blog entry to encourage all students that have their research related to hypertext and the web to submit to Hypertext. You can check out last year's Hypertext page for more details on what happened at Hypertext last year.
