Today is your last day to grab Expand tickets at extraearly bird pricing!

That’s right folks — tonight, at 11:55PM PT, the special discount on Expand tickets is set to expire. Don’t fret just yet, because you still have time to order tickets at the rock bottom price of $75, before they climb into the more expensive $100 price range. There, now our conscience is clear and we’re confident that you’ll use this information wisely.

The Winners List

You’ve been waiting for the announcement and now it’s finally time to reveal the winners of the Expand Celebrates CES Sweepstakes. The grand prize winner of an expenses paid trip to Expand in fabulous San Francisco is none other than (…drum roll…) Rick F. of Minnesota! Our first prize winners of a pair of Expand tickets are Marcy C. of Ohio, Patrick L. of Texas, and Josh M. of Pennsylvania. Congratulations to all of our winners and a huge thank you goes out to everyone who entered. We’ll have more giveaways in the weeks ahead, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled!

And don’t forget… time is ticking. Grab your tickets before the clock strikes midnight!

Editor’s Letter: Get ready to Expand

In each issue of Distro, editor-in-chief Tim Stevens publishes a wrap-up of the week in news.

This turned into a surprisingly busy week in news, and I’m proud to say we made a little of our own this week with the announcement of Expand. The brainchild of our very own Darren Murph, this is something we’ve been working on for roughly a year now and, with the pieces falling into place, it’s finally time to tell you all about it. The concept is pretty simple. It’s a gadget event not unlike the best in the world (your CESes, your MWCs) but with one crucial difference: this one’s for you.
