Well, John's post yesterday (a reformatting of your post the day before) would 
make a good news item:

  The Penguicon Online Registration deadline has been extended to April 15,
  2007.  Registrations made from April 1 to April 15 will be at the $45 price,
  same as if you were registering at the door.

  All registrations made during this extended period *must* be paid via
  PayPal.  NO mail in payments will be accepted for this extended period
  because they may not reach us before the con.

  Please make sure that if you are registering online during the
  extended time period that you print the confirmation form, as this
  will help to speed up your check in at the door.  Also, please print
  and bring your PayPal payment confirmation.

  Thanks!

Matt's announcement about the schedule being up is another good news item:

  Hey everybody,

  Penguicon's programming schedule is now on the site in a list form,
  with complete blurbs, rather than table grid. There is still a link to
  the table grid, though. Proofreading is welcome.

  Click the programming tab in the navigation menu to your left.

Also, I was thinking of putting together an entry of random video links, such 
as:

(If I did a general entry on the chaos machine, I'd link to 
http://www.conchaos.com/ and maybe
