Call for Articles -- GADGETS!!!

July 7th, 2008 by Shawn Powers

Your rating: None

As Linux Journal's Gadget Guy, it seemed appropriate for me to make this call for articles. Our December issue of Linux Journal is dedicated to Gadgets. No, it's not the "Shawn Powers" issue (How scary is that notion?), but rather it's an issue full of gadget related material. That's where you come in. Do you have an article idea that you'd love to share with the Linux Journal readership? If so, send us the article idea to ljeditor@linuxjournal.com (More details on idea submissions are available here.)

Here's a few ideas to get your brain working. Don't limit yourself to my list, however. If it relates to gadgets, we'd love to hear your idea.

  • Something about gadgets that use Linux as their OS/Firmware
  • Using Windows-Only gadgets in a Linux environment. (Breaking the rules!)
  • Installing Linux on a gadget it was never meant to be on.
  • Highlighting gadgets that are fully open source, both software and hardware
  • Maybe there is a gadget that every Linux user should own?

So now it's up to you. If you have an idea, and would like to write for us, drop us an article query. We look forward to hearing from you!

If last month's Infrastrucuture issue was too "big" for you then try on this month's Embedded issue. Find out how to use Player for programming mobile robots, build a humidity controller for your root cellar, find out how to reduce the boot time of your embedded system, and if you're new to embedded systems find out the basics that go into one. You can also read about the Beagle Board, the Mesh Potato and a spate of other interestingly named items. And along with our regular columns don't miss our new monthly column: Economy Size Geek.
