A few years ago we started #AskDanWindows. While I still answer individual questions on Twitter, jump into comments on stories, and even hit Reddit to engage with our audience, I wanted to record and share my thoughts on YouTube so everyone who wants to can benefit.
You provide the questions I answer, and therefore the content, so it's important we get the best of the best. You can jump into the AskDan forums and inquire about a variety of topics at any time. Please do. And I'll do my best to answer those questions.
The goal is to pick at least three questions each week that have broad audience appeal (so don't ask how I can fix a problem with your computer.)
Visit the AskDan forums at Windows Central
Anyway, jump in, discuss all things Microsoft, Windows 10, laptops, gaming, mixed reality, or whatever else is on your mind. This is not just about me, either, because we have some very authoritative forum members who can often add insight of their own. And where appropriate, I'll consult with some of our other writers and editors for their insights.
We aim to post new #AskDanWindows episodes every Friday afternoon Eastern Time on the front page of Windows Central, so remember to check back then. You can subscribe to our YouTube channel, as well, for the rest of our weekly reviews, Windows 10 updates, editorials and more.
You can also find previous episodes of #AskDanWindows on the main Windows Central forums landing page.
