February Roundup – MakeUseOf Authors

As always, MakeUseOf was buzzing during the month of February with the launch of MakeUseOf Answers, the publication of two manuals, two free product giveaways, and the re-starting of our Polls.  Add to that the publication of over 200 articles and we’ve got ourselves a busy site!

We could really use your help on MakeUseOf Answers though.  Answers is where you can ask your tech questions for free, and maybe someone else can help you out with an answer.   Why not subscribe to the Answers RSS feed or check out the Unanswered Questions to see if you can help anywhere?  Online fame awaits those with the most correct answers!

And now, without further ado, are the posts published in February (with the exception of Cool Tools and Geeky Fun).  Why not see if you missed something?
