Thank you for participating in GIGAZINE's Spring Giveaway! Here are the GIGAZINE access analytics results for March 2026!

Announcement #1: GIGAZINE's Spring Giveaway ended on April 19th (Sunday) at 11:59 PM. We received entries from over 3,500 readers! Winning notification emails have been sent out sequentially to winners since April 20th. Please be aware that these notification emails are often treated as spam, and there have been an increasing number of unfortunate cases where people who have won have missed out on their prizes because they didn't notice the notification in time. If the first winner does not reply, the right to receive the prize will be passed on to the second winner, third winner, and so on.

The results of the survey you have answered will be compiled into articles at a later date, with the most noteworthy responses being selected and published in order.

Announcement #2: We've published a report on the six-session 'Let's Doodle Together' creative workshop hosted by the editor-in-chief of GIGAZINE at Ibaraki Elementary School's after-school children's classroom ! It gives you a general idea of what it's like, and the next sessions are scheduled for June and July 2026.
