About a week ago, I posted this post about our expansion of writers here at Gumball Tech. We’ve had a very good turnout of submissions (there were 25 submissions), and I’m pleased to announced that the 5 new writers have been chosen. There will be a lot of new content from now on. More information after the break.

The 5 writers have already been notified, and they are: Shahm, Heather, Ryan, Jason, and Ben. Congratulations! We are all looking forward to the new content that you have to offer. Below is a little bit of information about each of them. It’s also available on our new Staff page.

Ben

As a recent convert from PC to Mac, I wanted to take advantage of my new computer.  I had a YouTube account,  so I started subscribing to tech reviewers.  I actually stumbled upon the Gumball Tech YouTube channel, which was one of the first subscriptions I had.  I wanted to try my hand at tech videos, so I started my own channel.  This led to me to getting into Twitter, and also getting interested in posting on a website.  Toady, I’m happy to have my own website, as well as being a writer for Gumball Tech.  I hope some of this takes me somewhere in the future. Feel free to follow me on Twitter @aelandT3.

Ryan

Hi! I’m Ryan. I’m a 16 year old high school junior, where I am also taking some undergrad courses at George Mason University. I’m a big Apple fan, as well as a technology lover as a whole. You can follow me on Twitter @ryanseitz.

Heather

Hi there, I’m Heather! I’m a 22 year old female with a passion for all things tech. I switched from PC to Mac in 2008, and adore the Android mobile OS (currently on a Captivate). I’m a born and raised Texan. Currently I am a tech/secretary at a software development company, and I am obsessed with staying on top of my RSS feeds. In my spare time I enjoy ripping apart iPods, blogging, making jewelry, and spending time with family. Feel free to follow me onTwitter @ZylearCreations.

Shahm

Hey all. I’m Shahm aka rayyes, recent Civil Engineering graduate who loves everything tech. To fill my time, I work while studying for my masters, and now I start writing for Gumball Tech . Hopefully, you’ll see a lot of posts by me about iphone/ipod mods, themes and how-to’s.

Jason

Hello everyone, my name is Jason Braning, I am 18 and I live in Denver, Colorado. I work a lot on computers (mostly Apple but a lot of PC’s too). I do a lot of work for different types of websites and saw an opening for Gumball Tech and was interested in a writing position. So here i am!!

We also have a few people who have been with us for a while, and occasionally write up posts.

Anthony

Hi, my name is Anthony, I live in San Deigo, California. I’m 15 and currently a sophomore in high school. I have an intense passion for the iPhone and anything tech. I love to program (X-code, Java, Python, etc) and have a love for making videos (YouTube). I dont watch much T.V, as online media is vastly more intriguing to me but in my spare time I watch NCIS. I have a Twitter and tweet very often so make sure to follow me.

Brandon

Hey my name is Brandon, I am a 21 yr old Mechanical Engineering Student at Northeastern University. I was born and raised in Boston, MA (but i am no Masshole). I currently work as an Engineering Technician with the US Army. I have an undeniable love for all things tech and hope to bring you the best of whats out there. I have been a Mac for about a year, I run a jailbroken iPhone 4 and hopefully will have an Android phone soon just to see what all of the fuss is about… you can reach me on Twitter @deltaco347.

Expect a lot of new content from here on out!
