Sharing a room there are NEVER enough hangers so I pack a handful.They aren't heavy and it cuts down on me burning things while attempting to iron them!

I would also add that if you wear disposable contacts bring a few extra pair just in case. I too carry a power strip especially at the airport....amazing how many new friends are going the same way you are! (mine is pink). I also always bring a highlighter and permanent black marker. I use these for marking up the program and identifying my stuff in the sea of millions of conference swag and bags. I also carry extra luggage tags and put them on my stuff with my twitter and email addy. I absolutely loved your post!

You will have more room for accessories. If you are going to be there for the whole conference, take some old underwear with you. Each day you can throw out your old underwear, so you don't have to tote laundry home.
