Be our next Public Access Q&A Guest Star!
Way down toward the bottom of the Public Access homepage are two oft-overlooked sections: Our User Reviews box, which displays examples of product reviews written by readers, and our Q&A section, which asks irreverent and light-hearted questions to a variety of celebrities and industry-insiders. Our past Q&A interviewees have included Becky Stern, Jake Solomon and Lil' Jon, and as part of our first year anniversary celebrations, we've decided to host a contest to find the next Q&A guest star from Public Access Weekly readers and members.
In the past few Public Access Weekly posts, I've mentioned that there would be an upcoming opportunity to be our next Q&A interviewee courtesy of a similarly irreverent mini-contest that would consist of guessing the 'secret' pop culture references to the Public Access Weekly titles. If you are eager to tell us the answer to questions like "Who is your favorite villain?" and "What was the last thing you Googled?" here's what you need to do:
Guess the references to the list of 21 Public Access Weekly titles listed below. They are all pop culture references of some sort, mostly television or music, and almost always relate to something that was occurring in the news during the week it was posted. Send us your answers in an email, to publicaccess@engadget.com, by July 15th. The person who guesses the most correct will be our next Q&A interviewee, which means you'll have something in common with the guy who is responsible for "Turn down for what?" Questions? Leave them in the comments to this post or send us an email.
