Correction to June 2013 Dumplings

On page 18 of the June 2013 issue of Juiced.GS, we reported:

Rounding out the convention circuit this quarter is the Vintage Computer Festival Southwest 3.0. Visit Arlington, Texas, this August 4–5 for exhibits and presentations on a variety of older computers. Tickets are $10 for one day or $15 for both; no pre-registration is required.

This story is incorrect. When looking for news items for our “DumplinGS” section, we visited the homepage of VCF Southwest and saw this announcement: “We will hold the Vintage Computer Festival Southwest 3.0 at UT Arlington, August 4th and 5th.” We assumed the future tense to mean the event would be held in 2013; we neglected to do our due diligence and scroll to the bottom of the page, where we would’ve seen, “Last page change July 16, 2012”.

VCF Southwest 3.0 was held in August 2012; there are no plans for the event to recur in 2013.

We humbly apologize for this error in our reporting and promise to do better fact-checking in the future.

Juiced.GS arrives on Facebook, Google+

Facebook logo

In the recent issue of Juiced.GS, I ruminated on the publication’s swelling ranks of subscribers and what we can do to maintain this upward trend. One question I posed: “As I write this, the Apple II Enthusiasts group on Facebook stands at 642 members, with more being added every day. Most of them are not Juiced.GS subscribers. What can we do to convert them?”

Social media has made it easy for brands and vendors to go to their customers, rather than vice versa. Starting today, that’s what we’re doing! You can now like us on Facebook, encircle us on Google+, and follow us on LinkedIn. At each, you’ll get updates about upcoming issues, new product announcements, and photo galleries from our print edition’s cutting room floor. If you prefer email notification, you can still get that, too!

To kick off this blitz, we’re offering a sneak peek at software that will be featured in our next issue. Just like our Facebook page then watch our video preview!
