There are three giveaways going right now, and none of them have many entries. Make sure you enter now before they end. ...
blog update
Brace yourselves…
The Holiday Gift Guide is coming. Okay...I spend way too much time on Reddit and quickmeme. But all that aside, I will begin posting up bits of the 2011 Holiday Gift Guide tomorrow. It's going to be a bit of a 'work in progress' type thing, and I will be adding to it throughout the holiday season. ...
I need some advice
I've done several Rafflecopter giveaways now, and I've started to notice something with my two current giveaways. I have people circumventing the mandatory entry, which, in both cases, is to leave a comment on the giveaway post. I don't see where anyone should have a problem with that.

Upcoming Giveaways
Well, it looks like there are going to be several giveaways coming up for November. All of the items will make great stocking suffers and Christmas presents.

It may end up getting it's own page depending on how much I end up listing. If anyone has any item suggestions, let me know. I'm always looking for different stuff to check out. ...
