AndroidTO Giveaway: Two Readers Win Passes
How the passes were given away
A few days earlier the author had said they were going to AndroidTO and that two extra passes were available. Readers explained why they wanted to go, and the author reviewed the Twitter replies and comments to choose the two winners. The names are left out here for privacy.
What happened next
- The event organizer was to email the winners so they could register.
- The author thanked everyone who shared a reason for wanting to attend.
- Readers who missed out were told to still try to go, since the discount became available.
The Google discount
According to the post, Google offered a permanent 50% off deal on tickets. That removed much of the cost barrier for readers who had not won a pass. The terms were part of that event period and are historical.
