Man, have I got a cool contest for you! The CoolIT USB Beverage Chiller is the world’s first USB powered drink cooler. That’s right! You can be the true cool kid at the next LAN party. While everyone is sucking down warmed over Coke, you’ll keep your cool because your drink is still cold. At least you can pretend it is.
My testing of the CoolIT Chiller shows it doesn’t really work but that doesn’t matter. Thirst is nothing. Imagine is everything! And the imagine the Chiller projects is you have all the cool toys. I have a Chiller sitting by my desk and now you can have one too!
To enter the Chiller thriller contest, just reply to this post. I’ll draw a random winner on Sunday and that person will become the new cool kid on the block. You only need to reply once. Making multiple comments won’t get you multiple entries. However, if you blog about it and send a trackback to this post, I’ll accept that as a second entry.
Good luck!

One of the most common complaint (or excuse) I hear from potential new bloggers is they don’t know how to install WordPress. Terms like FTP and CPanel are like a foreign language and setting up a database might as well be setting up the space shuttle for a launch. Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...

Seems like a cool toy but don’t know if some really want to win it.

I’m in John.

I guess Im in.
I’m in!
Btw, have you seen John Cow site? Looks like a parody of yours
I just checked out John Cow dot com and it was hilarious!
Count me in for the non-working gift contest.
I am also in

Oh, count me in! 1/250 odds. Lady luck, don’t fail me!
Me too, I had to reply here because my browser wouldn’t load all the comments
Cool contest…count me in
consider me entered
Me too as well
.
I could use some cold Dr. Pepper at my computer instead of the warm junk.
Dr. Pepper is my favorite too. I’m addicted.
Dr.Pepper is my drink of choice as well.
no dr pepper here anymore
shame
Too bad it doesn’t really work, I could always use a cold drink
I thought my USB flashlight was cool, no pun intended.
And best of all, if I win, I am a local Vancouver guy so I can pick it up!
I better win this one.
Cooooooool!
I’m in Buddy!
Sweet! I’ve always wanted something like that that doesn’t work.
Greatest useless gadget ever!
Haha indeed — count me in, John!
Please hook me up
I’m in, this would compliment my USB cup warmer perfectly… since neither of them work.
Oh I want one!!! Pick me..Pick me!!!
It might work better for beer bottles, they’re bottoms are flat..
Now that is actually something I have to say is funny as hell. Hey John, if I win, I’ll buy a beer and use it!
That’s awesome!
Nice John, read your post yesterday, never really came to me that this prize would be actually “cool” – if you know what I mean.
I’m not sure if I would want to bring this to a LAN maybe the USB humping dog would have been cooler.
Might be better if it did hot beverages, but hey, free is free!!
Oh man! Not thing thing!
I have one right here that keeps my papers from blowing away
Oh man! Not this thing again!
I have one right here that keeps my papers from blowing away
I’m in too!
Pleae, let me be a cool kid!
This has got to be the coolest contest you have ever run….sorry I couldn’t resist it.
I’m in!!
hell im in
I’ve entered too…
Hope can get somethin’
I’m about as cool as it gets so…
Well I guess I should make my first comment an entry to win something. Why not!
I guess I’ll take a stab at this too.
Add me to this cool contest.
Sweet. Consider me entered.
Count me in!
Consider me entered. Thanks!
Count me in! Thanks!
Why would I want to win something that doesn’t work? Oh well, guess I just got entered in the contest…maybe this will become the new Zune (what else are you going to do with a prize that doesn’t work)
At least he was upfront with us and admitted that it did not work as intended. Although, it must not be too bad if he has one sitting at his desk. It must at least kinda work.
Think about it, when John becomes crazy famous (not that he isn’t already), it could be worth a lot of money in the future.
John, call me an idiot if you will but I’m not sure on the term trackback i’m still getting my feet wet in the blogging world. However, I did write about your contest and other things you do to promote your blog on a post.

That is good enough.
Cool, thanks…
John,

Count me In!
Wow – obviously, a whole lotta folks is pretty eager to own this no-functional usb cooler, and I can see why
so pls count me in!
Wow. That sure is a cool gadget. Count me in !! John, you’re the coolest blogger of all time. No one gives away as you do !!
I would like to enter as well.. A kind of different prize though
Make me the new cool girl on the block!
So, is it cool or not?
Or maybe the tool is cool, but the coolness factor doesn’t transfer to the coke.
hmm. bad jokes.
i want i want! count me in too. I like this gadget.
Count Me In!!
Does this work for cocktails also?
One entry please!
Today is my lucky day 7-7-07!!! C’mon luck seven!
Pick me….pick me!!!
Wow, i thought i would never get to end of that post. But anyway back to the contest iam in, i really want to win this thing.
let me try my luck
Why would i want a gadget that wont work? The idea of a USB Drink Chiller is briliant though. How about them making the type that keeps my coffee or tea HOT!. A lot of times i forget my hot coffee while my brain is-a-glued to the screen!
Here in the backwoods of Kentucky that would be equal to the Jetson’s coping to town. Enter me please…….
Oh ye im in this one.
Looks cool gadget. i need one for my gadget review blog..
Dr. Pepper? That stuff tastes like carbonated cough syrup. Coke is the best soda.
Not a big fan of Dr Pepper either. You’re right on the money — carbonated cough syrup.
Count me in, I have a spare USB slot open on my computer

jon
Love it! People actually enter competitions for prizes that don’t work. Anything for nothing, right?
P.S. If I win, please give the prize to someone else. I don’t want it.
Does it work with milk?
Since it doesn’t keep a Coke cold, I doubt it’ll do much better with milk.
Hey please enter me into the contest John Chow!!!!
I don’t even like Coke, but I want one.
Count me in! Id love to win this regardless of reviews.
I love the fact that it doesn’t really work… but I still want it
Count me in
Im curious, what do you gain from giving away stuff for comments. I mean yea you get more comments, but does does it benifit you in any other way?
Yes it does benefit me. It gets readers that never used to comment commenting. And when they comment, they tend to read other comments. This can create more comments. Next thing you know, they’re an active part of the community.
Man o Man,
So may suckers, and only one chiller
Vijay
