Unfortunately, we're not really looking for folks 00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:07.600 outside the Vancouver, Canada region, but do have a look at the list anyway 00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:13.439 and see if there's anyone you know who would be a good fit. I'm aware of what you're doing. As far as compensation is 00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:17.280 concerned, these are paid positions, but I want to set realistic expectations. 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:21.280 We're a very small company, and starting wages won't really be anything special. 00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:24.880 You'll find the full details, as well as a checklist of the things we need help 00:01:22.720 --> 00:01:29.200 with, in the link that is below in the video description. 00:01:26.720 --> 00:01:34.240 Item number two is for everyone, not just Canadians who live in Vancouver.

Techquiki is not going to teach 00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:04.600 you everything there is to know about technology, but I hope that you'll find 00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:09.920 the content fun and sharable nonetheless. But wait, there's more. I 00:02:07.759 --> 00:02:14.879 want everyone to know about this giveaway. If you can get another social 00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:18.160 media influencer, uh, let's say anyone with I pretended I was thinking about 00:02:16.480 --> 00:02:24.560 it, but it's in the script. Let's say anyone with 10,000 followers on YouTube, 00:02:21.760 --> 00:02:28.800 Facebook or Twitter to share this video with their followers and give you credit 00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:34.560 for bringing it to their attention. I will enter each of you, the person who 00:02:31.440 --> 00:02:37.519 refers the influencer and the influencer 00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:41.440 into two separate draws each with their own prizes. So, for the one who the 00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:46.640 influencer credits, there will be a chance to win an ASUS GTX Titan graphics 00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:50.800 card. And for the eligible influencer who shares this video, there will they 00:02:48.720 --> 00:02:56.720 will be entered into a draw to win a Sony twoin-one 00:02:52.760 --> 00:02:59.120 Ultrabook.

They're in the link in the video description because 00:03:05.920 --> 00:03:10.959 there are a few things you'll need to do to validate your entry so that I can do 00:03:09.519 --> 00:03:15.680 the draw correctly and make sure it's fair for everyone. Both giveaways end 00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:19.599 February 28th. The last thing, item number three, in our 2014 update is 00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:22.959 really important. For us to achieve the aggressive goals we've set out for 00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:27.680 ourselves this year, which is more content with better quality across more 00:03:25.200 --> 00:03:31.040 channels, we will need people, space, equipment, and all kinds of expensive 00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:34.560 stuff like that. And for that, we will need your help. We've had a lot of 00:03:32.799 --> 00:03:39.120 people ask us over the years if we take donations or contributions. Many many 00:03:36.959 --> 00:03:44.319 content creators do. And with a couple of exceptions, we've always said no. But 00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:48.000 now there is. We've worked out an easy automated system through Linus 00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:51.200 techtips.com that cuts out the middlemen who are keeping a chunk of your 00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:54.319 contribution for themselves and it pretty much all goes to us except a 00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:58.239 little bit, excuse me, a little bit to PayPal. Sorry, I choked on that PayPal. 00:03:56.319 --> 00:04:02.319 Um, so visit the contribution link in the video description if you like what 00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:07.040 we do and you want us to keep doing it. Honestly, the benefits for the different 00:04:04.239 --> 00:04:10.480 tiers aren't really that different. And because we're never going to charge for 00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:14.319 access to any of our content, there's really no pressure and the amount that 00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:17.919 you contribute is completely up to you. Or if you do it at all, it's completely 00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:22.240 up to you. Just know that every dollar helps us do what we're doing and do it 00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:25.759 better. And you have our thanks. And if you do want to contribute, but you don't 00:04:23.840 --> 00:04:29.040 want to bother creating a forum account, don't worry. We have you covered as 00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:35.759 well. The forum now supports signing in with Twitter, Facebook, and Steam. So, 00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:37.360 you can just quickly, easily create, 00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:41.120 well, just sign in. That's pretty much all there is to it. And I think there 00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:46.400 must be one other thing because otherwise I don't know why you're even here other than to mock me. So, I'm I'm 00:04:44.479 --> 00:04:50.720 leaving and I'll let you cover update item number four. So update item number 00:04:48.880 --> 00:04:53.680 four, which in my opinion doesn't necessarily matter more or less than the 00:04:52.400 --> 00:04:57.120 other ones, but apparently he doesn't care as much, is the Linus Tech Tips 00:04:55.520 --> 00:05:02.720 conglomerate, which is currently the eighth largest faction organization 00:05:00.479 --> 00:05:06.240 thing in all of Star Citizen. We just passed Red Faction, aka Reddit faction, 00:05:04.960 --> 00:05:10.160 which is actually really cool, although we do love those guys. And once we get 00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:14.720 100 more members, we'll be third in the world in terms of size, which is 00:05:11.919 --> 00:05:18.000 actually pretty epic. Our activity levels are pretty insane as well as 00:05:16.400 --> 00:05:21.840 we're ranked number one or two. We kind of bounce back and forth for activity 00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:25.600 which is really interesting. The chat is super active and on the forum we post a 00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:28.240 ton. I think we're at like 27 pages right now. So whether or not you're in 00:05:27.039 --> 00:05:31.680 the organization, if you just want to talk about Star Citizen, come visit us 00:05:30.080 --> 00:05:37.039 on the forum. We can talk there. We have a ton of fun things planned for the alpha and beta stages of Star Citizen as 00:05:35.039 --> 00:05:40.479 well. So if you are planning on playing Star Citizen and just want people to fly 00:05:38.479 --> 00:05:44.400 with, it'll be a lot of fun. Join up. Uh, casuals and hardcores are both 00:05:42.479 --> 00:05:47.759 equally welcome as well as just everybody else. We'll have something to 00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:53.120 do for everybody. I'm sure the hardcores will stick in their kind of little groups and will play within themselves 00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:57.919 and get a lot done. And I'm sure the casuals will just have a great time. So, 00:05:54.800 --> 00:06:00.400 join up today. They will constantly play 00:05:57.919 --> 00:06:05.039 with themselves. Um, join up today. Help us reach top rank three. That will be 00:06:02.400 --> 00:06:09.039 awesome. Uh, as always, subscribe and thank you guys for all your continued 00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:14.199 support throughout 2014. Thanks, guys. I'm back. I was never gone. I know.
