It has been a while since the last competition here at Ghacks and I thought it would be a nice idea to start another one. This one is actually pretty simple and everyone will be able to participate. All I’m asking for is that you stumble and review (just a few words are fine) one or two articles here at Ghacks and let me know about it.
I will then draw five users from all stumbles and send them each $10 to their paypal account. Your chance is doubled if you stumble two sites which is the maximum that I accept. The competition ends in exactly one week from now on the 9th of June. Make sure you use the contact form to send me the following information:
- the pages that you stumbled (urls)
- your username at Stumbleupon
- your paypal email in case you win a price
Let me explain how you stumble articles. You do need a free account at Stumbleupon and the Stumbleupon toolbar. (I hide the toolbar most of the time and only activate if when I want to stumble pages).The toolbar displays a thumbs up icon which is equivalent to saying that you like the site.
If the site has not been stumbled before you are asked to add it to a category and add tags to it if you like. (two – three tags are fine) and write a short review. A review could be anything from “great tech blog” to a larger review. Stumbling two pages takes approximately 2 minutes.
If this works out well I will be holding a similar competition every month. Instead of using the thumbs up button you can also use the “Stumble it” button beneath every post at ghacks.
Good luck to everyone.
