Freakin' Sweet!
One of the blogs I frequent, Inside Google, is looking to increase their viewership (and participation). They're doing that by starting
DVD giveaways just for posting in the comments (obviously, no spam comments - add some value!). In order to keep it going though, people need to spread the word! So I figured I'd share the wealth, and get some extra points by doing it:
Okay, so, after asking around, today’s the day I start giving back to you guys. Today you can win a free DVD of "The Producers", starring Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick, just by being a faithful reader. Everyone who comments between 7 am Eastern time Tuesday and the same time Wednesday will be assigned a number in a random drawing, and that person will get the movie in the mail.
Every time you comment, you’ll get one entry, so the more you comment, the more chances to win. And because I want to push more traffic to the other blogs, if you comment on InsideMicrosoft, Business Bits or Apple Watch, you get two entries. Obviously, I don’t want people to comment for no stupid reason, so if you say something pointless, like "Yeah" or "Here’s a comment so I win", that won’t count, but as long as you are adding to the conversation you’ll be fine.
Also, if anyone wants to link to this page or my review of the movie, I’ll even give them three entries, but only do it once. And if the link doesn’t show up in Technorati, it doesn’t count.
Pretty sweet, as I already liked that blog.
