you will need to act now.
If you haven't registered yet, you can register for DLV 2015 by using

General DLV 2015 registration is open:
If you plan to attend Diva Las Vegas 2015 and have not registered,
please do so. You can register on line here:
http://www.geekbabe.com/cgi-bin/dlv/aip.cgi
Shortly after you register you can expect to receive a confirming e-mail
which contains the link to your personal Attendee Information Portal.
This will be used for such things as changing your registration, signing
up for optional activities, setting activity reminder text messages, and
viewing the Final Attendee Information (formerly known as the Large
Final Mailing).
IN THE EVENT YOU RECEIVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
VIA E-MAIL AFTER YOU REGISTER, SOMETHING IS
WRONG AND WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Getting to know you:
Before you get to the big event, there are a few ways you can get to
know the others in advance.
A collection of on-line features is known as MyDLV and is open to you as
a DLV attendee or interested person.
MyDLV is an expansion of our on-line presence which allows you as a DLV
attendee (or prospective attendee) to contribute to the experience of
all users.
We're inviting you to join and participate. It's free and there are very
few formalities, conditions, and rules.
Some of the features of MyDLV which are currently in place include:
1. Photo Gallery. MyDLV users can easily upload their own photos from
their PC or browse the DLV collections and include those photos in their
gallery. Other users can then view the photos and add comments to them.
2. Chirping (microblogging - yes, an admitted rip-off of Twitter). This
is a great way to spread the word on things during DLV if people will
subscribe to "chirps" on their text-capable cell phones. It has
convenient informal uses too. "I'm at the bar at Harrah's, anyone wanna
join me for a drink?"
3. Discussion Forum. Clean interface, threaded by topic, archives going
back to the early 2000s on line for browsing.
Easy one-click reply with sane quoting.
DLV announcements, going back to the early days of DLV, are archived on
MyDLV.
4. "Friend" mechanism. Basically a way to focus Chirps to groups of
users, but it has other potential as well.
5. The Whiteboard. A just-for-fun widget.
6. Blogs. We have a full multi-user implementation of Wordpress, the
blog software to which all others are compared. This is available to
MyDLV users who wish to publish a blog.
7. Additional features such as access to the Gender Wiki and TG links
collection. As a MyDLV member you are able to add your own material to
both of these.
In addition, at our upcoming Welcome Celebration on Monday of DLV week,
the first individual who approaches Annie and says "I'm thirsty" will be
treated to the beverage of his or her choice.
8. Last but not least, easy one-click access to the DLV Attendee
Information Portal. No hassles with forgetting those numbers or digging
back through old e-mail for the correct links.
Please give it a try and let us know if you have any issues.

Valuable Door Prizes:
No! These are not trivial trinkets or blatant promotional items.
These are gifts of substance and are something that each and every DLV
attendee will like and can use!
One of these will be given to a lucky new attendee at the New Attendee
Welcome and Orientation on Monday of DLV week. (Must be present to win.)
Another will be given at our Farewell Celebration to the returning
attendee who is voted "Most Welcoming and Inclusive" by the new
attendees present at DLV 2015. (Must be present to win.)
Please stay tuned for further details.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Big Sisters:
Big thanks to all who have volunteered to be Big Sisters.
As many of you know, DLV has an active Big Sister program, the intent of
which is to provide basic advice and assistance to first time attendees,
or to those who may have attended in the past, and are looking for some
additional support.
If you are new and unsure and would like the help of a Big Sister,
either before the event, during the event, or both, please request the
assistance of a Big Sister by using the Big Sister tab on the DLV
registration screen or by e-mailing: bigsister@geekbabe.com
We currently are in need of a few more Big Sister volunteers, and we
would appreciate some of the more experienced girls would consider
offering to help a newcomer. Please volunteer via the DLV website (on
the registration screen via the Attendee Information Portal), or via
email to: bigsister@geekbabe.com
Thanks.
