OK! For all of you have been anxiously awaiting the new iPad from Apple you may just have a chance to win a custom ColorWare ipad for simply tweeting. We stumbled upon this great viral marketing opportunity from TapTapTap and felt we should share it with our readers. Here is what you have to tweet and then follow @taptaptap and that is you are entered:
- the free @digg app’s here for iphone! to celebrate they’re giving out a custom colorware ipad each day for 2 weeks! http://bit.ly/diggapp
They are doing this to help promote their new free Digg App which does:
“The Digg app is finally here for your iPhone or iPod touch! Digg and view top stories, read comments, save stories for reading later, and do it all in a sleek interface with one tap from your home screen. It’s all the stuff you care about on the internet, now elegantly presented in mobile form.” I would love to have the chance to win one of these custom iPads and so we wish everyone the best of luck and hopefully over the next 12 days we will be the proud owner of a new ColorWare iPad and will graciously post about our new gadget. The iPad should change the game yet again for the way that we interact with each other and read books. I saw an interesting commercial about the Kindle and my 11 year old daughter thought it was a commercial for the new ipad. Simply because the music and style of the ad was very similar to the way and style that Apple used to launch the iPhone. So the competition will heat up as iPad’s begin to ship next week and we will read about the advantages and glitches through our new iPhone app for Digg.

If you are in the market for a new home then you have until April 30th to take advantage of the home buying tax credit that has been in play for the last 8 months. This tax credit that has been part of the economic stimulus gives first time home buyers who qualify an $8000 tax credit and existing home owners looking to buy $6500. It is estimated that over 2 million people have taken advantage of this tax break and has started to show signs of helping the overall hosing market. As consumers look to purchase a new home the overall surrounding economy stands to benefit because of the additional spend that will take place in new furniture and appliances.
The real estate companies like Caldwell Bankers ha done a good job to help position themselves as a go to resource to help answer questions as well be an advocate for their clients looking to buy and sell their homes. While the tax break is rather simple you will want to make sure that you understand if you qualify because their is income limitations and the price of your home that you purchase cannot exceed $800k. Using a qualified Realtor can help you find the right home and be able to give you guidance on the specifics of this great incentive to help you get that new home that you have been looking at.
If you have ever wanted to use your Twitter or Facebook account for good things then MassiveGood.org may be something that you can get involved with. We were recently made aware of the launch and wanted to do our part in order to help spread the news. There are so many ways to get involved and one of those is through blogging and raising awareness. There are other simple ways in which to get involved by simple shopping through one of their travel partners and look for the Click MassiveGood logo and just click. We have included a short video at the end of this post in order to share what they are involved with. There are some big names that are getting involved in this movement and now you have a chance to make a difference through micro-contributions and bring awareness and help to some of the preventable deaths that take place across the world.

MASSIVEGOOD uses the power of social media to help stop the millions of preventable deaths from HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis and increase maternal and child health in the developing world.
Social networks have revolutionized how we interact. But can they raise awareness and increase funding for some of the most pressing global health issues in the 21st century?
MASSIVEGOOD does both, by creating a worldwide community based on small individual acts of giving. MASSIVEGOOD lets you make a $2 micro-contribution towards major global health causes every time you buy a plane ticket, reserve a hotel room or rent a car.
Available in the USA since early 2010, MASSIVEGOOD allows travelers to make their trip really meaningful and connect with fellow contributors on this website, a social network for those committed to building a healthier world. To ensure that all travelers can make a difference, leaders in the travel and tourism industry have joined with global health organizations to support MASSIVEGOOD in an impressive private-public coalition.
It’s an easy way to do good and connect with others that are doing the same – just click MASSIVEGOOD!
There is a great article that we had a chance to read at the Examiner where Eric one of the contributors writes of his first hand experience with Zenni Optical. If you know your eyes are bad and you’re already wearing glasses, I know of a great place you can get your next pair. Great Discovery: $ 8 Zenni Optical Rx eyeglasses and other glasses like these can be found at Zenni Optical. They offer some great deals on prescription glasses and at a great price too!

I am always looking for the next look in watches and have had a variety of watches from Seiko Automatic Watches to Swiss Army.
At Bluedial.com they offer a huge range of watches and time pieces with 100% satisfaction for your purchases.
Content is what drives the internet and many Web 2.0 companies are looking to obtain new and fresh content. Even the big cable companies like Comcast Cable are going to the web to find videos to fill channels for their viewers. We have started to find ways to syndicate content to increase our audience and the concept is slowly working. As we create and bring in more unique content we build our customer base and then they in turn bring in additional visitors. This is simply done by them linking to our feeds on their sites and then more people are exposed to our writings. I have always been a bug believer in having great content and even more so video content to bring value to your readers. If you can be seen as a great resource to get up to the date information all in one place then you will be of value to your customers. If not you will join the ranks of the other billion or so websites out there.
Many companies are now working with Digital Marketing experts like Fusion Unlimited in order to expand their reach and brand awareness. We have seen more and more companies linking into the video content and reaching out to bloggers to embed this content in their blogs. You can choose from a variety of topics and the videos are easy to install. Plus the fact that you have the opportunity to make money via advertising share, CPM start at $1. What’s great about this content is that it can freely redistributed or “Mashed”. This in turns takes on a viral marketing effect and you are compensated for the additional impressions that the videos are generating. Plus there are loyalty programs where members can earn additional prizes like digital cameras and even cars.
