# Hello

I'm very thankful that almost 7000 people want to get this in their inbox each week. Hard to think that back in January that number was 200. This has been a great side-project to work on and worth every hour I've spent on it. So to all my subscribers - thank you!! I thought it would be fun to give something back, so I'm excited to announce the Amazon Kindle Fire giveaway. To enter just tell someone about Hacker Newsletter and afterwards let me know. Good luck! +Kale
