What’s this about? Woody Leonhard’s AskWoody Plus Newsletter contains practical, implementable, real-world information on Microsoft Windows, PC maintenance, security, best apps, smartphones, and other important PC and personal tech topics.

The newsletter is very much cast in the mold of the classic Windows Secrets newsletter; and many of the original Windows Secrets gang have signed on, including Woody himself, Susan Bradley, Tracy Capen, many others, and I.

Eventually, the AskWoody Plus newsletter will be by subscription, but for now it’s open and free to all!
