Aha, I've forgotten one fun tidbit! Dicebot has had the amazing 
idea of providing a hashtag for "live questions" from the remote 
audience. So if you're watching and want to say or ask something, 
simply Tweet and include the hashtag #askDConf. Dicebot will pick 
up the Q's and pass them onto the appropriate party in the event 
itself. Should be quite a fun way to interact with the live 
stream! :)
