Button Matching Attendee Contest
Pick up a button at the NVIDIA booth, find your match on the show floor and return to NVIDIA’s booth to spin the wheel and win a prize. Both winners must be present to win.

Now, I wasn't there for the "horror" that was 2007, but I have read stories. People using the mic at panels to look for the matching number, lists being passed around, forum posts, spreadsheets, and even cardboard signs advertising what number they have.
No good can really come of this, though there may be alot more organization to finding your number this year. Talk on the official forums (http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=99488) may lead to "forced" sign ups to help get as many matches as possible. Twitter will also be used, just be sure to hash tag with your number if you so choose.

It'd be cool if two of us were able to match our number to each other, but I doubt it.

There were a bunch of people maintaining a list on the skybridge last year. No surprise that someone would come up with a digital system this year.

The on-going arms race of nVidia button matching continues!
