Leave a comment and win an iPhone!!!

To promote my new tech blog (the one you're at), I decided to hold a little contest, the winner of which will receive an iPhone. To enter the contest all you need to do is leave a comment, and I will randomly select a winner.

The iPhone will be in its original packaging, complete with the following:

  • Stereo Headset
  • Dock
  • Dock Connector to USB Cable
  • USB Power Adapter
  • Documentation
  • Cleaning/polishing cloth

So leave a comment, and you just might become the lucky owner of a brand new iPhone. The contest will end on the 4th of July, 2007.


I'll send this to international users as well, since a lot of readers seem to be from outside the U.S. but keep in mind that if you are outside the U.S. you won't be able to make calls, unless someone manages to unlock the iPhone.

To keep yourself updated, please subscribe to my feed. It's free.

UPDATE: The contest is over, the winner is announced here.

Hi, I would like an iPhone please. Give me one.

Does the comment have to answer a specific question or something, or will any comment do?

Alex said...

Thanks for participating, any comment will do, but witty or funny comments might catch my eye a bit more.

And also please leave your email address, so that I can identify the winner. If you are worried about spam, just create a new temprary adress, or write your address as:

Hey, I tried to get an iPhone earlier but instead I "accidentally" got a microphone and a punch to the face, do you mind if I can have yours?

hi.


My dad got an iPhone, I did not. It angers me lots, I am still stuck with my poopie Verizon RAZR.

An iPhone would be tight.

Goodbye!

Neither rain, nor snow, nor sleet, nor smog
Could keep those iNuts out of the queues
While I'm tucked in bed when it's time to snooze,
And won my iPhone from Tech, The Blog.

I hope.

Wow, thats a pretty radical way to promote a blog, and it sure as hell is working, lol. I posted this on my website.

If you buy me an iPhone, I promise to send videos of myself bragging loudly and obnoxiously from my fire escape, looking out over a densely crowded NYC block (St Marks Pl between 1st Ave and Ave A).

Mike said...

I'm a little strapped for cash right now, so I was going to wait for the iPhone to drop in price a bit.

"free" is the price I was looking for, Here's hoping I win :)

Innovative way to promote a blog... and I love it :)

Starlyght said...

A semi-altruistic gesture to let the world know about your blog, that's new :) Shortsighted as materialistic needs might be, this one is just too tempting to pass up on. In case you happen to choose me, I'll send you some pictures from Belgium along with my eternal gratitude :)

Erasable Ink said...

I'll be honest, I stumbled onto your blog while searching for "iPhone Contest" on Google BlogSearch. But after reading the five articles that you've written, I subscribed to your blog in my Google Reader account, and I'm looking forward to keeping up with it. Note that I said Google Reader, and not Newshutch. Sorry bro', but there's no way Newshutch is a Google Reader killer. At least not again. Newshutch killed Google Reader back when Google Reader sucked, but since they updated Reader, it is solid and untouchable.

Anyway, sign me up for the contest: godbout at gmail.

Man i'd really love a iphone. I got my slvr l7 on june 29th which was my birthday. The day of the iphone launch I was at the county fair. I was on a jackhammer ride where it goes upside down at 100 feet. My phone slipped out of my jeans and crashed to its death after a exact year. The camera fell out, and the screen shattered. The funny thing is that it was in a motorola case with a screen protecter that served well for a year.

Hi,

My name is Dennis and I'd like an iPhone. Also, I'd be interested to know the stats of this promotion when its all said and done if you don't mind. Seems like an interesting experiment.

Eric said...

I saw this blog, so I had to ask myself this question: do I feel lucky, punk? Do I?

jdmoney8 said...

everyone really wants to know if the give-away is real.

Jason said...

My fingers are crossed... Good luck with the new blog too!

I never win anything, and if I win this, it'll be nothing short of a miracle.

So if I do win this, I'll take it as a sign from god, that I should propose to my girlfriend, which I have been holding off for sometime because I was unsure.

Hey maybe I'll give her the iPhone, instead of the ring. Think that'll work?

I would love it and hug it and treat it as my very own... Ummm... That notwithstanding... I'd take pictures of local artists (and works) with the lovely iphone and then make a site displaying all the work (made on a mac tm)and hopefully get people to buy some - making some lives a whole lot better and promoting world harmony and peace. True story.

Alex, bro, THANK YOU for this cool opportunity! (If I win, I plan on starting an iCult, where we will all shave our heads and worship Steve Jobs. But don´t worry, I won´t force anyone to drink tainted Kool-aid, and we won´t be waiting around to catch a ride on the Hale-Bopp comet. I promise to be a reasonable cult leader!)

In celebration of July 4th and the release of the iPhone, I wrote a little something special. (Note, it should be sung off-key to the Star Spangled Banner.)

Oh, say can you see by the iPhone's great light,
What so proudly Apple released at the twilight's last gleaming?

For it's bright screen and cool apps, and it's awesome foresight,
Through the lines have we stood, so ridiculously drooling.

And the touch screen has no glare, other phone manufacturers are scared,
yes, iPhone proves, once again, that Apple will always be there.

O say, does that great iPhone (ThatISoDesperatelyWant) yet ring
O'er the land of the lemmings, and the home of the (great Apple) king?


Thank you!

I used to work at Apple until I was laid off 4 months ago, now all of my Apple buddies get a free iphone, and I get nothin'.

best part - If I win I'll probably receive this one before they receive theirs' from Jobs. Then I can rub it in their face that I got mine from Tech, The Blog -- I think that that would make you cooler than Steve Jobs, yep pretty sure.

If you don't chose me, please don't pick someone that wrote a poem/haiku - seriously.

iPhone is one of the great inventions of our time for it has revolutionized the cellphones. Cellphones are seen almost everywhere and you can't see a person without one. It has been addictive especially to teens.
