Tips
Update: This is the new tips page. The old one has been so fortunate with many tips from MNB readers but the page became too bulky and unresponsive. Thank you to all those tippers on that page and apologies for the inconvenience as the tips page had slowed down. Thanks to those who gave us feedback about it.
The older tips are visible at: http://mynokiablog.com/tipsarchive
Got a tip or article suggestion you’d like to share with MNB’s readers?
email us at tips@mynokiablog.com
OR
leave a comment below
Emailed tips may be published faster than the comments as that still currently relies of manual checking. We’ll credit the name/username you give us or can leave you anonymous if you wish.

- Or if you wish, you can write up something and we can publish around that too. This will go under our new account, MNB Reader Generated.
- Pictures and screenshots help a lot.
Crediting:
- We will try to credit all sources and we will do our best to check that we find the originating source of the information (and mention the people/blogs) that helped us find it (unless of course, any party wishing anonymity).
- If you want your name mentioned, leave it in the message.
- If you do not want your name mentioned, please specify that you either wish to remain anonymous or by an alias that you specify.
- If a name is not seen in the main body of the email, we will just use the first name of the email account unless you have stated not to use any names.
Posting:
- Please note, multiple links are automatically put on hold if they contain 3 or more links.
- We’ll try to get to your tip as quickly as possible.
- Please note that some posts will be scheduled to even out server load (thus post has been written up and will be published shortly – mostly for 00:00 GMT the following day).
- HOWEVER: If we miss a story you think we should cover, please don’t hesitate bumping it up or messaging again if you wish. As this is a part time thing, we might not always get to everything.
- Note: We are also aware of some problems with some posts not getting through. Apologies for the inconvenience of over-zealous filters. You may circumvent this through https://bitly.com/.
Thank you so much! You guys are awesome!
Update:
In addition to email or the comments section, you may try sending a tip using the contact form. Note, I’m not quite sure if this will work. If you want to send an image, please upload to imgur.com/ and paste the link in the comment form

It looks exactly like the new leaks of the Nokia Lumia 830. Look the buttons and the screen. Greetz
Hey there, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog site in Safari, it looks fine but when
opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that,
superb blog!
