Housekeeping & Extra Crunch 20% event discount reminder

    • Extra Crunch will not be publishing on Monday due to the Memorial Day holiday in the United States. Publishing will resume as normal on Tuesday.
    • Reminder: if you are an annual member of Extra Crunch, your membership includes a 20% discount on event tickets and exhibitor packages. If you want to claim a discount for one of our upcoming events, such as Sessions: Mobility, Sessions: Enterprise or TechCrunch Disrupt SF, just send an email to extracrunch@techcrunch.com and our customer service team will get you all setup.
    • We have pushed out a product update to the Extra Crunch landing page. Now, you can see a featured list of our member-exclusive top stories, just as you can on TechCrunch’s main page.
    • Finally, if you ever have any challenges with your account — login issues, paywall issues, etc., please do email us at the customer support line at extracrunch@techcrunch.com. Adblock plugins have a tendency to break some of our login functionality (it happens to me too, since I am an adblock plugin user myself), and we can help mitigate any issues you might be facing.
