PDC Badges
Collecting PDC Badges is the way for anyone attending PDC to capture their experience
at the PDC conference. Just for showing up at registration you’ll receive the "I
was there at Microsoft PDC2008 Badge". If you go to a
PreCon, you’ll get the "Captured Brain Power Early" Badge. Not every Badge
is that easy to get though. Only a few will obtain the exclusive "Keynote Front

The best part is that everyone is joining in! You will find Badges available from
the Conference, Product Groups, Sponsors and Attendees. Find more details on collecting
or creating your own Badges from
Adam Kinney, the Badge Evangelist. Download the template: [zip].
