Oh, BTW, I want to know about the time machine you’re using on this contest, “At some point on 04/29/2018, I’ll pick one random winner using random.org” — how do you go backwards two months?
Whoops! I usually just copy a past contest page and modify it for a new contest. I guess I missed that modification. It’s fixed now. 🙂
The newsletter lists the posts from the previous days. It’s not brand new info. At least not yet. 🙂

2. I like the in-depth gadget reviews where the devices are actually put to the test and pros/cons described. I also like the “here’s what I use for XYZ” posts that aren’t necessarily about a new device, but tried-and-true equipment.
3. I’m not a big fan of news articles. Least favorite is press release based articles. Speculation about announcements can be fun but I’d much rather have a review about equipment-in-hand.

3. Enjoy new tech items or new tech science.
