Looking for Writers: HTPC Articles

Love Home Theater PC, SageTV, media-gadgets? Want to write a how-to with screen-shots or photos of your gadgets or HTPC setup? Or just want to share with others without the hassle of dealing with a personal blog?

Let me know. I run www.geektonic.com and am looking for people just like you. I love SageTV and write about it myself, but am always looking for contributors whether that be guest bloggers or even regular contributors. SageTV & HTPC writings are especially appreciated as that is why most readers come to GeekTonic. The pay is low (nearly non-existent although I do try to give a gift card at the end of each year to contributors) but you'll be reaching over 100,000 eyeballs each month and you'll be helping out the community too.

Examples of articles that would work:
  • How to ...... with your HTPC/computer/mobile device etc
  • Summary of your media setup
  • Room makeover for your home media setup
  • Why you went to the trouble of HTPC
  • Why you switched to/from SageTV
  • Your favorite videocard, TV, processor, computer case etc etc
Hopefully you get the idea. Why ask for more contributors? Well the honest truth is I want to continue to "grow" GeekTonic.com. It's gone from a very ho-hum blog where I occasionally shared my own experiences to a semi-HTPC news & info blog to something that actually is successful in terms of readership at least.
It pays for itself but definitely doesn't pay the bills - I do that with my day job. Which is the other reason I'd love to get more contributors - I have times like the last month where I just don't have time to blog as much as I want.

Would you like to do one simple post or have ideas for several? Either way send me a message and I'll hook you up. I'll help with the formatting, spell checking and all that non-fun stuff too.

Brent,

I know I still owe you an article sorry about never getting around to that. That being said I would like to do maybe say monthly or so bit on "how to" for the mymovies for sagetv port. I am a busy bee when it comes to coding but not so much when documenting so hoping by breaking it down into pieces I can cover more and show people how to do things they might not know exist.

Cheers
