I'm in! Came here from Kevin Kelley's "1000 True Fans" comment. My experience with contests and giveaways: these take work too. There seems to be a lower threshold under which people will NOT take action. For example, I've had trouble giving away money. $7.13 is not enough money to inspire someone to fill out a contact form and press "Submit." Crazy! But it's true. $15 isn't for a gift certificate. I did give one away, but I think the person that won it... won it by accident (being the 1000th comment on my blog). Subscribed. (And Merry Christmas!) I’m in! I’m in!

The contacts are made. I am opened up to 200 people I would not otherwise know, and I think it's important to be open minded. We talked about seeing if this project "worked".... I know it will. More people will be aware of my work because of it and on top of that I know that I will gain contacts. I always do! The reason i always do is because i engage with my community. Keith So far it's been a huge success. The hing is this. The contacts are made. I am opened up to 200 people I would not otherwise know, and I think it’s important to be open minded.

Sometimes it's the best way to get attention - you know everyone won't stick, but the ones that do will remember you fondly. People love free stuff! It must be a fact of nature.
