Core77

Before all the nation's hot conferences and events, when all the decent hotels get fully booked in a matter of seconds, don't fear--the scrappy Days Inn off the exit ramp isn't your only option. You may remember AirBed & Breakfast from its rogue debut during Connecting '07, but it's now a new, improved, and ready-to-grow accommodation station. During any major event or conference, you can make extra cash by renting out an extra guest room or airbed, and if you're attending, you may find a thrifty rate with the advantage of hanging with the locals. Over 40 AB&B hosts and guests are currently taking part at SXSW and upcoming events include the SNAP Summit, ad:tech, Web 2.0 Expo, ICFF, DNC, and RNC.
