Chicago (IL) – We are proud to announce the launch of the TG Daily newsletter service as an extension of our website and an opportunity for you to stay in touch with the latest technology. We are celebrating the launch with a Dell Dimension XPS M1730 notebook, Seagate hard drives and a Kingston enthusiast memory kit.
We know you are busy and there are simply not enough hours in a day to follow the wave of technology news being released every day. To make it easier for you to stay in touch with news being published on TG Daily, we will be launching two weekly newsletters that have been created to provide you with an easy overview what is shaping our life with technology today.
On Wednesdays, we will be providing a Midweek Update, bringing you up to speed on new products as well as business and technology trends within a few minutes. It’s the best way to get a snapshot of the events of the week quickly and enables you to learn more about the items you are interested in without having to sift through hundreds of headlines. On Fridays, we will be sending out our Weekend Edition with retrospect coverage of the week as well as an outlook of technology items and news to watch for in the coming week.
We know that we are a bit late to the party with our newsletter, but better late than never, right? We hope that our newsletter will match the expectations of the numerous readers who have been requesting a newsletter from TG Daily over the past months. But if it does not, you simply can send us a note and suggest changes and topics. As always we will, read every email and consider every serious request.
Oh, I almost forgot: Of course, we are proud to be able to offer a newsletter – so proud that we decided to celebrate the launch of the newsletter with a giveaway. To participate, simply sign up for the newsletter, provide your contact data (in the end we will have to send the winner the prize somehow) and you will be automatically entered for the drawing, which will run from today through November 23 (read the official giveaway rules here). Due to legal reasons, the giveaway is limited to people residing in the U.S.
Readers signed up for the newsletter will automatically be re-entered for upcoming giveaways, which we will hold on a quarterly basis among our newsletter subscribers – consider it sort of a lottery ticket that renews itself.
Of course, we do not make you participate in the giveaway. If you simply want to receive just the newsletter, simply leave the contact information fields in the sign-up form blank.
Here is what we will be giving away in the first round:
1. Prize: Dell Dimension XPS M1730
