Today is January 16, 2007. I will be announcing the winner of the Playstation 3 giveaway in exactly 10 days. So create those feeds or link from your blog or myspace profile to the site. I have gotten a little bit of grief over asking for links. Here on Fat Wallet one poster said, " A word of warning. They require you to provide a link to your MySpace page or your web/blog page so they can get free advertising from your entry. They are certainly asking a lot for only giving away a single PS3!"
Well excuse me. When I got this PS3 for the promotion they were impossible to find. I am not sure how asking for a link on a site like someone's craptastic MySpace profile which looks like Geocities ala 1997 is a big deal. It wouldn't be such a problem if I DIDN'T OFFER AN ALTERNATIVE means of entry by creating a feed at the site. Look. We are a small company - I didn't buy 10 PS3s to give them away. I bought one. I didn't pay a PR firm thousands of dollars to publicize my giveaway. I did it myself. As a result I didn't get local coverage on television and I only got word of mouth (or in this case word of blog). This means relative to a huge promotion your odds of winning are pretty good. Right now if you entry our Playstation 3 giveaway your odds of winning are currently 1 in 110. We have gotten 110 sign ups during the promotion so far. So your odds of winning are pretty fracking good. Anyway discuss it in the Playstation 3 giveaway forum.
