Those of you will like entering contests

[Geekbabe]

Many have asked me to help them enter contests, sweeps and giveaways. Twitter and Facebook are the hottest new PR tools
for these things.

if you like contests, follow me on twitter @geekbabe
and you'll get up to date tweets on all the latest contests

Please Do Not follow if you don't enjoy contests.

Btw, I do return legit follows and will Retweet and vote for ATOT members who need help in contests.

Coolness, following you now.

you might want to set up a 2nd twitter account for contests that's not protected, peeps who protect their tweets seldom win, if you do just refollow me with the new account.

In yesterday's mail I got a Toshiba netbook , a $100 old navy gift card

Contests... GRR! I've entered at least 800 so far and all I've won is a lousy T-Shirt!

Are most of your contest entries available to canucks or is it mostly US only?

800? I've entered over 20K.

Some contests are open to canuks, others aren't just check the rules of whatever sweep you're interested in. I can/do retweet about contests only up to canuks when I see them as a favor to others.

20,000 sweepstakes? Good grief. I have a life and job, I couldn't possibly waste that much time entering that many contests just for some swag and 100lbs of junk mail and phone calls.

Funny I was just thinking of this yesterday. Thanks! However being Canadian I'm not sure how useful most of the contest you sign up for would be, most being US only probably.

I seldom get phone calls from sponsors unless I've won, junk mail goes into my recycle bin where I collect points to get amazon gift cards.

I have a life and a job too.. this hobby means I get to have less job and more life

Use a bot. Don't know the link but there's a site that fills out captchas for you automatically also.

Geekbabe, is that the word Symbian on your avatar? As in Symbian the mobile OS?

use of bots will get you DQ from most legit sweeps, Roboform is a form filler and is acceptable to most sponsors though

 

[cronos]

the Twitter one. duh.

Awesome! I'm a big fan of Symbian myself and am excited about the future of Symbian. I'm not *that* big of a fan that I wouldn't switch to Android if they don't deliver though

 

[ViviTheMage]

return on time invested isn't worth it, imo...haha. granted, I never win crap!

 

[Geekbabe]

Anybody who's following me just saw that I won a nice prize at a Twitter party
