faster than those that did not register in advance.)

Badges will not be mailed in advance. Instead you'll receive a printable receipt/confirmation upon registering online which includes a unique barcode tied to your registration record. To expedite your on-site check-in, you'll need to print out that registration confirmation and bring it with you to on-site registration outside Ballroom D on the fourth floor at the Austin Convention Center (across from the Hilton Hotel), where you will quickly print your own badge.
