I don't have answers to your question, but figure I can pitch my 
daily plan.

I'll a rental car with a hotel southwest of Facebook's campus 
(i.e. not Aloft). I plan to join any after conference party and 
would be able to chauffeur people around if not too far out of my 
general travel. But I prefer to make such agreements once I get 
down there.
