Geek Dictionary Contest: We Have a Winner!

Last month we announced that we are running a Geek Dictionary contest whereby entrants can win a $100 Newegg gift card just by submitting a definition.

Today we're proud to announce that Brian Webb of Longwood, Florida is the winner of one of our three gift cards. But there's still more up for grabs! All you have to do is submit useful definitions to the Geek Dictionary. The users with the most votes for their submissions will win. Easy peasy, right? Right.

(Pro tip: if you write definitions that stick to the tone of the dictionary you will probably get more reader votes.)

So what are you waiting for? Start cranking out helpful definitions for all the newbies that are frequenting Tom's Hardware but don't understand a single, solitary word of what we say here.

Be sure to check out the contest rules before you enter.

    Really, it's only a simile, he doesn't need to compare the article to all other news channels/papers/outlets that have dodgy reporting to make his comment fair.
