Be a part of Tech News Today this holiday season!

The folks at Tech News Today will be AFK (Away From Kottage) during the week of December 27-31 in observance of the Christmas/New Years holiday. But that doesn't mean there won't be new episodes of TNT! Though won't be there every day to recount the daily tech news, we're getting a little creative, and we need your help! There are a couple of ways you can take part in the holiday episodes to help fill the void:

Best Of TNT:

Do you remember a moment or discussion from the show that stands out as one of the best/funniest/punniest/awkward moments since TNT began on June 1, 2010? Visit http://twit.tv/bestof and let us know which moments are your favorites! Might I suggest using the TNT playlist on YouTube for fast and easy viewing? Deadline for submissions is Wednesday, December 15.

Open Mic:

How would you like to join the TNT folks via Skype for an episode? We will select three folks to join us on an episode that is all about YOU! We'll bring you into the show complete with Skype video and don't forget to set aside your favorite tech story of 2010 because we'll want to talk to you about it! The episode will be recorded on Monday, December 20, from 12-1pm PT so you MUST be available during that time in order to be considered. Here's what you do:

1. Send an email to tnt@twit.tv (subject: Open Mic).
2. List your name, skype ID, and a little bit about yourself and why you would like to be considered.
3. Confirm that you WILL be available for the recording time of Monday, December 20, from 12-1pm PT, if selected.
4. Deadline for submissions is Wednesday, December 15. We will contact those who have been selected by Friday, December 17.

Dancing with the TNT stars:

In the interest of focusing your awesome efforts, we are redacting this idea. Let's face it. The last thing you want to do is dance in front of a camera. Unless you're playing the Kinect.
