Today marks an exciting day - we are officially launching our new page over at http://vessel.com/linustechtips!
Of course, some of you may be wondering what exactly Vessel is... So before Linus took off to Asia, he created this video:
We also have an FAQ thread where you can ask questions about or make suggestions for the service at http://bit.ly/linusfeedback
As Linus mentions in that video, you can sign up for a full year of Vessel, absolutely FREE for the first 72 hours after launch! (March 24, 2015 @ 12:01am PST - March 26, 2015 @ 11:59pm PST)
We also have an official Vessel FAQ and Feedback thread, which you can view here. Linus and the rest of our team will be monitoring that thread, reading every post made over there, so ask any questions you may have and we will answer them to the best of our ability!
