Random Gear Live Bits

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Announcements

Time for a few bits regarding the site.

Submit News Tips: We have added an often requested tool to the site, making it a snap to submit news tips and stories to Gear Live. At the top of the left column, you will see a link that simply reads “Submit A News Tip”. Click that, and you will be taken to the submission form. Go ahead and give it a try!

Sync Magazine: Don’t forget that we are giving away free 1 year subscriptions to Sync Magazine. If you didn’t score your free subscription yet, what are you waiting for?

New Editors: If you’ve been reading the site recently, you have probably seen a couple of new names on the story bylines. Welcome Edwin and Shane to the Gear Live editor team. They love technology as much as the rest of us here, and they aim to please. Gear Live is looking to possibly add a couple more editors to the staff. If you have a particular niche you would like to focus on, let us know. If you are interested, drop us a line. Please include a writing sample.

E3 Expo 2005: We are heading to the Electronics Entertainment Expo in May to bring you coverage of all the big happenings in the gaming world. If you want to support our E3 efforts, you can sign up and complete an offer at MacMinis4Free - by doing so, you will help secure our living quarters while at E3, seriously!

IRC Chatroom: We got hooked up with an IRC chat room. If you want to stop by and chat about tech, head on over to #gearlive on irc.freenode.net - irc://irc.freenode.net/gearlive - and introduce yourself. Remember, this is the only official Gear Live IRC chat room.

Forums: If you haven’t seen the Gear Live Forums, check them out here. We have a very active community, with great tech (and non-tech) discussions throughout.

Newsletter: Finally, we will soon be adding a weekly email newsletter to our list of services we provide here. You can sign up for it by simply entering your email address in the Newsletter box in the right sidebar. The newsletter will also include news highlights, along with product giveaways. No need to worry about spam, we hate it as much as you do. We will not be giving away any of your information.
