The Winner of The Google Christmas Gift

written by John Chow on December 29th, 2007

Congrats goes out the Tyson Williams for winning the Christmas gift from Google. Tyson’s name was drawn out of over 300 entries. That makes this contest one of the best ever. You guys must want a flash drive really bad!

For those who didn’t win, don’t feel too bad. There are still two more contests going on. The first is the TTZ Media affiliate contest for a 22″ LG LCD monitor. We’re giving away two of those. The deadline to enter that contest is the end of this year (that’s in two days). If you haven’t got your entry in, better get on it!

The second contest is for the Ruff PC laptop. I made it into the final round of voting. I came second in the last round. If I win this final round, I win the Ruff PC and that means one of you will win the Ruff PC! So head on over there and vote! Or just vote for me here using this widget. :)

Help me win by putting the above poll on your blog. Using the following codes:

The site that won the first round didn’t make it pass the second round.

Actually they withdrew from the competition… not that they were getting enough votes to make it to the next round anyway.

Considering the voting widget appeared in the RSS feed, I think you stand a pretty good chance of winning. It’s *only* 14,347 RSS feeds that the widget just appeared in. :mrgreen:

It doesn’t show up in the RSS feed. At least, it didn’t in mine (Google Reader).

Well good luck! I am sure you will be first in 5 more days. It wasn’t that big a difference between the first 2. The widget will most likely appear in TechTreak RSS feeds too. But he isn’t giving it away if he’d win it right? :D

Nice contests you have running there John, though personally, given the fact that my office currently “hosts” 3 computers/2 printers/podcasting gear/2 phones/1 fax machine, the last thing I need is more hardware…I think I am starting to develop some kind allergy :)

Voted for you as well John, I don’t need the laptop so feel free to donate it to a charity of choice on my behalf, on your behalf or whatever, it doesn’t really matter, just donate it to an organization who actually needs it if you pick my comment as the winner :)

Hey John,
I voted for you too :razz:
To support you, I have also put the widget in my blog.
You said that if you won the final round, you won the Ruff PC and that meant one of us would win the Ruff PC. If you really win, are you going to have a lucky draw from all the names of people who leave comments for this post?
Thanks,
Frances

Apparently TechTreak has so far twice the voters John has. 310 - 157. Plenty of time though for things to change.
