    HALOLZ.com is also contributing a few fun door prizes as well. I will be bringing them to EXPO on their behalf. They're pretty rad. ;D

    Ya I saw that, but last year there were other shirts too. There are only so many OCZ team overclocker shirts you can own before thats all you wear.

    Actually, I'm glad you asked.

    A lot of people come to Icrontic from a variety of angles; you, for example, came to us through our TF2 server, which is a sort of community outreach effort on our part.

    Icrontic does a lot of hard work. For example, just search for the CES 2010 tag to see the kind of industry relationships and reporting we did in January. A lot of those relationships then blossom into something like a sponsorship for Expo.

    With Icrontic's strong social media presence, 300,000+ monthly pageviews, and a dedicated internet following, companies are ensured that they will be noticed all over the internet, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and more. This is a chance to get some grassroots exposure and PR for their companies. This is also a chance to execute on some creative marketing strategies with fun and innovative connections directly with computer enthusiasts, connected tech geeks, and gamers.

    Smart companies and their PR agencies know this, and that's why they sponsor events like ours :)

    As nerdy as this sounds, thanks for posting this. Probably the best sales pitch I could have possibly read, and I'll use it to point out similar things to company reps if they show they're looking for places to market their gear via reviews or sponsored support.
