We will be having a Site Meetup on Saturday, 19:00 in The Pendrells Oak in Holborn, London. There are around 30 people who have said they may be coming, so if you are in the area please pop in.
Below you will find a tag cloud of the most popular news story tags. Simply click on the tag to view all associated stories. Tag clouds are not always the most useful output of tagging, and so you can also browse the news stories using our tag index by clicking on the tag index tag below the tag cloud.
From this section you can browser through all of the possible tags that may have been assigned to a news story. The number of stories tagged to each tag appears within brackets after the tag name. E.G Megatron (456) means that 456 news stories have been tagged with the phrase "Megatron". To navigate, simply use the top bar to browse by the first character of the tag phrase.

Auto Assembly Booking Discount Deadline Looms...
Just to remind everyone that you now have less than FOUR weeks to get your booking forms in if you want to qualify for any form of advance booking discount. After the end of this month, tickets are going to be full price!
However, the 10% discount for all ACTIVE members of the Auto Assembly forum still applies no matter when you book though.
One thing we would say is that we would strongly recommend pre-booking. We don"t know how much space we are going to be using in the hotel yet although we do have a fairly flexible arrangement with them but the more people who book up early, the bigger the capacity can be for the convention.
One thing we want to say is that as a two day event, some of you may think that both days are going to be the same. Each day will be having different guest talks, obviously different video screenings, possibly different dealers tables, different activities, different free art cards for each day from the range we are producing, plus access to the Saturday night programme for weekend attendees.
If you do book for a single day or have already booked for one day, you can upgrade before the convention or on the day.
You can download the booking forms from the website or just send us an email with your address and we"ll send a form to you. If you want several forms to give to friends or if you know of any shops or places that might be willing to put some on display, again let us know and we"ll send a batch to you!
Finally, with the progress report packs that we are sending out with the tickets, there is a hotel brochure for Birmingham city centre, plus details of over 70 city centre car parks!
Looking forward to seeing you all in May.
