Across all of the TUTS sites, we're starting a new weekly giveaway! This means that you should check Nettuts+ every Friday to potentially win a prize related to web development: anything from a new book, to a code editor, to Apple's new magic mouse - which we're giving away today!
Update: Winner Announced
Congratulations to Jason Wendell for being randomly chosen as the winner! Comments have now been closed.
"With Magic Mouse, Apple has brought Multi-Touch technology to the desktop mouse, giving you a new and more intuitive way to interact with your computer. Just as with iPhone, iPod touch, and MacBook Pro, the Bluetooth Magic Mouse adds gestures and swipes to the usual clicks to bring more functionality and help you get more done with less effort." - via Amazon
How to Enter
Quite easily; simply make a tweet linking to your favorite tutorial on web development, whether it be from Nettuts+ or any other site. At the end of your link, add the #nettuts hash so that we can track it. Then, on Monday, November 2nd (US Central Time), I'll sort through the tweets and select the winner! Anyone in the world, other than staff members, are eligible to enter!
Note: Envato staff and those who have written more than two articles for Nettuts+ are ineligible to enter.

MAC SUCK

So does your caps lock.
( )Peter Sawyer November 2nd
Have you ever used a mac?
They are fantastic machines and well worth using for graphics design.
The cost of them is abit crazy but then you do get what you pay for.
I use a pc but would love a mac. ( at work I use a £3000 mac pro + 3 24″ screens) this is amazing for both motion, graphics and web design.
Love the fact you are giving away weekly freebies and that I am now eligible to enter (as you have changed the rules for writers)

All the best to those who enter – nice of Envato to offer a free prize, but having used the mouse, I’ve found it difficult to do some of the multi-touch actions (side-to-side particularly), so I’m not that keen on them.
( )Daniel Whyte November 1st
@Shane, it does take a little getting used to, as the gestures on the macbook.
( )Shane November 2nd
I found the flat surface of the macbook much more appropriate for multi-touch.
You still have to be holding the mouse when you perform the side-to-side action, so it doesn’t feel comfortable.

While this is a nice gesture and an exciting opportunity. I suggest against using Apple’s Magic Mouse or their three button mouse for regular everyday freelance use. They tend to break very easily, especially for extensive creative work. Pretty to look at but short lifespan.
