4 Days Left in the Shylock Contest

There are 4 days left in the Shylock Contest, and you can still take part if you haven’t already. There are only 5 entries in the contest right now and 3 prizes, so the chances of winning are pretty high :)

Here are the 5 entries so far:

And here are the rules:

1) Link to the front page of this blog or to one of my articles that you like in a speed linking post or a post of its own, as you prefer.

2) Send me an e-mail using the contact form or comment on the contest page to let me know you’re taking part. I’m not considering as part of the contest any entries if you don’t contact me to let me know you want to take part.

As you can see, easy to take part. Just link to this blog if you’re doing a speed linking post in the next 4 days and send me an e-mail about it with the URL.

1st Place - prizes worth $60

  • 3 month 125×125 ad spot, beneath the Subscribe area in my sidebar - priced at $40 (on all articles and pages)
  • review of the blog - currently priced at $20 (my honest opinion on it, the good and the bad)

2nd Place - prizes worth $40

PS: if I don’t post or answer e-mails until October 1st please forgive me. My birthday is on Friday and friends will keep coming from different cities to have some fun together during the weekend. I’m going to have some serious hangovers so not sure how much time I’ll have around a computer.
