InvestorBlogger is running a contest–one I really like the idea of.
There’s an image here, if you can guess what it is, your name will be thrown in for the chance to have it sent to you!
Looks to me like an external harddrive and while I already own one, I could always use another to keep some of my media instead of deleting it all! I go geeky ga-ga over externals!

Last night marked the close for submissions to my Cover Contest and after listening to all the songs, I picked my favorites and distributed points. I assigned all entrants a number, and wrote down that number once for every entry. I cut ‘em all out [tons of tiny pieces of paper…] and threw ‘em in a hat to draw out my winner.
Number 4– Kat from My Single Mom Life and Twisted Psycho is the winner! Kat, you’ll be receiving an email from me shortly to work out how you want your prize.
I’d like to thank every one who participated! I’ve gotten a lot of great songs out of this. A special thanks to Christine and Allan who sent me a few of my favorites from this batch.
Keep an eye out guys, I’ve decided this won’t be my last music contest. Soon I’ll be holding one to expand my collection of acoustic songs
Thanks again to everyone who participated!

The Rookie Blogger is holding the first of many contests to help build up a name and traffic to his new blog.
Mike’s fairly new to the game. He’s recently discovered the world of money-making on the internet and is somewhat chronicling his venture.
Part of his plan is to give back to his readers regularly with different contests and such every month.
I wish you well Mike! It can be a bumpy ride, but it’s certainly an interesting one!
If you’d like to help Mike out, and possibly earn $50, you can give your readers a heads up about his contest. You can win through blogging, or genuine comments on his blog between now and the end of November.

I had a surge in adding music this week and now I’m craving more. I found a few covers of Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game” that I really like, and We the Living do a really great cover of “Ain’t No Sunshine.”
I’m a sucker for a good cover song! Punk covers are a guilty pleasure as well. So that’s where you come in. I’m looking to expand my cover song collection so I’m holding a contest for $10 sent directly to your PayPal account [or a gift card to the store of your choice, if you so prefer].
It’s pretty simple, leave a comment with some of your favorite cover songs–preferably ones I probably haven’t heard. Each song will count as one entry [10 max but feel free to send more!]
Furthermore, if you actually email the song to me at faded(dot)jadeline(@)gmail(dot)com, I’ll give you two entries each. [Max 10 songs on this as well]
If you blog about it and link to my tiny little contest, I’ll add another two entries. Leave a comment with a link to your blog entry.
Finally, for the three songs I enjoy the most [obviously to be decided by me] I’ll add 5 entries each.
All entries can be left in a single comment, or individual–your choice, just be sure they don’t run all together and confuse me
Contest runs until November 2nd. Winner will be announced and notified by the 4th!
So that’s
1 entry per song [10 max]
2 entries per file you send [10 songs max for 20 entries]
2 entries for a quick blog with a link
5 entries for the three songs I deem best
So bring ‘em on! My ears are happily waiting!

On Wednesday I went next door to let the guys entertain me. Alas, I ended up just looking through Game Informer ’cause they were playing a much less entertaining game than I had previously thought. My bad!
Of course, this brought up the lovely issue of me finding no less than 5 games I desperately want to own…none of which I even have the correct system for. *sigh* I hate when I’m not caught up enough with game technology!
Well, at On Top Results, a Charlotte Web Design firm, they’re giving away your choice of one of three items– an LCD monitor, a 5gig iPod, or an Xbox 360. Well, I already have an iPod, and technically, I own 2 LCD monitors, but wow! A free Xbox 360? For real? Sign me up for this one!
Again, it’s as simple as blogging and adding a link. 10 minutes of your time could find you wasting away on a couch with an Xbox controller! You KNOW that sounds appealing!
