*Update: I won the $2000!

Well I have been real busy with link building this week that I haven’t had time for a blog post or to look over the blog posts in my RSS reader. I finally took a half hour break to sit down and read through my blog posts and saw a contest ending soon from John Chow’s blog. He was originally going to end it May 31st but their was a communication mix-up and so now hes picking this weekend.

Well I am a sucker for contests if they have something good as a prize. I never bother with ones that give away free software or little things like that, but this one is giving away $2000 or $4000 this weekend and it looks like there isn’t too many entries, so I figure I have a small chance at winning. I figure if I enter 25 contests like these in the next couple years ill win one or two of them by playing the odds, and free money is money well earned, so why the heck not!

The contest is simple, just register at the online radio station website and write a blog post stating what your favorite radio station is. Well, I enjoy the top 40 music if I am working, otherwise any rock station if I am just relaxing on Facebook or instant messenger.

Hate to say it, but their captcha (image verification) system is absolutely terrible! I got it on the second try but jeez… if they wanted a secure verification they should have just used Recaptcha (.net) which is secure and doesn’t hurt your eyes! The other thing that annoyed me is one of their advertisers (free wallmart giftcard) was a talking advertisement which is really annoying when you are listing to music… but I don’t know if that was their problem or if it was an unlucky ad from Adsense. Aside from those minor inconveniences… the site is pretty cool and I have spent a few hours listening to tunes on it
