I really like the idea... I think I am going to post about it just for curiosity sake. I would hate to "pick" the best switcher story though. That might be a bit hard

since your site is about buying a new mac - how about a contest for new mac buyers who can show how your website influenced them.

no he didn't... but someone else just won. Check the home page. BTW, I'm looking for more ideas for the next contest. Any ideas?

The winner was the digger "Fireflock" - I sent an email via their MySpace page this morning, but still haven't heard a response. I will give them until tomorrow morning and draw again. If I do draw again, I will post the new winner here. Thanks for checking in.

*Fireflock, if you are out there, respond or you will lose your Shuffle.*

Brent,
I posted a review on my Tumblelog. I don't know if that qualifies as a blog post... and I'm not familiar with this trackback thing... but here's a link to the post.

I also signed up on your email list and Digged!

Thanks for this cool and very helpful site!

" I think a lot of people will probably do the same. However, I wish they wouldn’t. This site is about community and I would like the emails to be something different from the site"
In which case I'll stay subscribed! You should make that clear though since at the moment the subscription option is in the smae panel as the RSS options and it appears to be related to the same content offerings. If the email is going to offer different content don't be shy - tell us!

Hi there, love the site, love the design, love contests.

Can't beat this place with a stick. Add that to the fact that I just bought my first Apple computer (a 17' MBP) since the Apple ][e and we've got a wonderful situation.

That's fine by me... I think a lot of people will probably do the same. However, I wish they wouldn't. This site is about community and I would like the emails to be something different from the site. Still working on how to do that, but I have a few ideas. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears!

Thanks!

I haven't got a blog. I'm a casual reader of Digg but haven't signed up. I guess I'm going to join your mailing list even though I've just added you to my Google Reader subscriptions! Oh well, after this contest I'll unsubscribe from the mailing list but continue to read your posts on Google Reader.

an email is an email... whatever you choose. As long as I can get a hold of you if you win. Good luck!

Sorry about that. Like I said in the article, I am new to a lot of things. Not necessarily technology, but my Mac and Digg are pretty high on the list. My honest hope is that the rest of the articles on this site are the resource your looking for. I thank you for your advice and I will take it into consideration on the next contest. I do hope this contest proves to be fun as well as the site is useful and all that...

Anyway, thank you for the digg, I appreciate it!

I found your article, because I'm one of the people who are very active on DIGG.This idea of marketing with a contest is very good, but not that way ( on digg ).Digg is a website where news & articles become popular if more people consider that they should be popular.The news or article should be news worthy to be on the from page, and receive the big traffic.This post is not for the first page in my opinion, and I'm not the only one who think this.Is just a a small contest.

Now I have an advice for you.If you want more readers, you should concentrate on providing value, quality and fun.This is the true way to get people on your website.The hard part is to be consistent and keep them on your website.

Anyway ... I've joined this contest because I want an Ipod Shuffle for a long long time, and maybe this is the change to win one.

P.S - English is not my natural language, so I might have some mistakes.

Have a great day !

DUGG !

I did all three - however for the email portion, I signed up with my business email account, which is different from this personal one. Is that cool?
