Creative Professionals who complete a very short survey can win prizes including Dragon Dictate 4, a ScanSnap S1100 scanner, an more!

I’m in the process of relaunching Veritrope as a place where technologists and creative professionals from all over the world can meet, learn from one another, and share their tools and inspiration. Last month, I reached out to the hardcore Mac people to find out what they like (and need), and now it’s time to hear from all you Creative Professionals!

I need your help to do that well. So, for this week only, I’ve put together a Giveaway to thank people who complete a 7 question survey. Everyone is welcome to enter, but I really want to hear from designers, writers, non-profit workers, and artists.

Prizes!

Some fantastic prizes are in the mix for all you Veritrope supporters, including:

CREATIVE PROFESSIONALS GIVEAWAY ENTRY FORM

The widget below is the entry form.

a Rafflecopter giveaway

You get 5 chances to win for completing a very short survey.
(Seriously — It’s only 7 questions).

Extra Chances to Win

If you like, you can also get extra entries for following Veritrope on Twitter, App.Net, or signing up for the mailing list.

I’m really trying to reach out to as many smart, creative people as I can in order to find out what they want and need. If you’re lucky enough to know some people matching that description, you’ll get up to 10 bonus chances to win for each one who completes a survey (See the “Share This” button at the bottom of the entry form to get your special link to send them).

Thanks for your help — and good luck to everyone!

Wrap-Up (And a hint of things to come!)

Now that I’ve contacted all the winners, it’s time to say thanks to all of you who made the Mac Users Giveaway a great success.

Your responses to the survey helped me to understand what it is that you like, want, and need from Veritrope.com — and I am taking it all to heart as I plunge head-first into a complete overhaul of this site.

Readers also shared some really useful AppleScripts, TextExpander snippets, and the like — I’ll be loading those into the library and highlighting these contributions very shortly.

Thanks to Our Sponsors!

None of this would have been possible without the people and companies who donated prizes, and I appreciate their kind support of the Mac Users Giveaway.

But moreover, I appreciate their support of Mac Users everywhere by putting these great tools into the hands of people who genuinely appreciate them! As the Giveaway progressed, I heard from readers all over the world who were excited by the prospect of winning one of these prizes — and the ones who did win were thrilled.

My great thanks to all the readers and friends on Twitter and App.net who helped me to get the word out and, of course, to each of the fine companies and generous people listed below:

One More Thing…

I’m doing one more Giveaway next week and, if you liked the prizes in this one, you should definitely check back!
