FYI: I was one of the winners of this contest! I got this email 12-11-08. Haven't received the wine bottle yet, though I'm looking forward to it.

"Hey you! I'm happy to let you know you won 1 of the 6 Blue Monster wine bottles so if you could let me know which address to ship it to I'll take care of that immediately. Thanks for dropping by http://crossthebreeze.com, hope to see you again soon.

Cheers

OK, So I take way, way way too much pleasure in writing ridiculous (and fictitious) things in online contest boxes.  Here's my latest, when trying to score a bottle of wine at Crossthebreeze.com, to celebrate the Euro tech/web event: LeWeb.  It should also speak to you about the power of using Twitter to drive traffic, as Hugh MacLeod, Twitter ID: gapingvoid does quite well.

"Ed Eusebio (18:46:14) :
Because, in the evenings, my in-laws gather to consume prodigious quantities of whiskey as they ridicule my lack of ambition, wherewithal, skills and courage. Their contempt for my love of the vine often comes into play during each crippling round of character bashing. My hope, against all, is that I may demonstrate, with your glowing bottle of Blue Monster Sauvignon Blanc, that I do occupy some tiny place of importance in this world, and that there are people who hold me in such regard as to place said delicious bottle in my hands. And then, with prized bottle raised high, I will stride out the door, empowered by your regard to accomplish great things. That, and I followed Hugh MacLeod’s tweet: GapingVoid here."

So submit your own entry...and tell me if you win!

Would love to win a bottle of wine as my hubby and I love a good bottle of wine
and would love to learn bout them.

OK so maybe my point is that companies really should follow through on their
prize promises. Someone enjoyed that wine. I didn't.

I have a feeling that most
online prizes are like that. All fluff and fiction. I've known too many
companies that do the same thing. Lie online.

Which has led to a novel new
online consumer behavior - disbelief and distrust. But that's healthy anyway.
There's lots of sharks out there!

It's been a year and a half. Should I stop holding my breath? :D
