It’s official, My Twitter Contest: follow @krutal

by Krutal Desai on January 17, 2009

I don’t really update my twitter much, but in recent weeks I have been planning to get more into it and be an active member. In spirit of this I have decided to hold a contest and give away a few gadgets I have lying around that I never used. Lately I have seen many people hold contests and such in order to give away gadgets in return of reaching a certain number of followers; Sitepoint even gave away a free CSS e-book to every one who followed them on a certain day.

1. My plan is to give out a free unbranded Black Flip Mino by March 1st to a lucky random winner.

2. BONUS!! If I reach more than 8000 followers I will also ship out a Blackberry Storm that I could not figure out how to use! Follow the rules below to get started and retweet

3. Current contestants: http://krutal.com/contest.php

Easy Directions to enter contest:
1) Follow me on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/krutal
2) Tweet the Following by clicking here or copy / paste:

“Free Flip Mino / Blackberry Storm Contest. Follow @krutal and Retweet. http://bit.ly/7xnB. He Also Follows Back!”

And on top of that … I will also follow you back!

Hi,

Is this valid for Europe also?

Krutal Desai January 20, 2009 at 2:28 PM

Hey Jason, it will be random. However, feel free to blog about it as the more followers I get the more inclined I will be to give away the Blackberry Storm despite reaching 8k.

Krutal Desai January 20, 2009 at 2:29 PM

Yes I will ship global – do not worry.

Krutal Desai January 20, 2009 at 2:29 PM

Thanks Diana!

I think everyone will give away whatever gadget or prize they are promising. But hopefully you are a winner of at least one of these contests.
