I was quite pleasantly surprised when Will Chen from Wise Bread wrote to inform me that they are holding a few contests that you may all be interested in joining. Wise Bread is promoting the launch of their new forum and they are doing so by giving us all a chance to play and win! The odds of winning in their giveaways are pretty good since the forum so far is quite small with 260 users, plus it involves a daily drawing and several prizes.
There are two contests, one open to everyone and one tailored for The Digerati Life readers (oh my!). Here are the particulars:
General Contest (open to all)
For the next two weeks (12/31/07 – 1/13/08), Wise Bread will be holding a daily drawing to give away one $20 Amazon gift certificate and one copy of Zen To Done per day. To enter the drawing, the reader needs to make a comment anywhere in the new Wise Bread forum. Each good faith comment with at least 3 sentences will be counted as an “entry” to the drawing.
Special Contest (open to The Digerati Life readers only)
Now I was quite excited to find out that in addition to the general contest, there is also a special contest that will be held just for our readers here! Wise Bread is also providing a separate giveaway for those who sign up to the Wise Bread forum using a referral code. To join this contest, just sign up for the forum then enter the word “digerati” (all lower case) into the referral box and make one comment in the forum. You will then be entered into a special drawing for a $50 Amazon gift certificate. On 1/13/08 Wisebread will select one of these entries to win the $50 Amazon gift certificate! Your chances of winning here are probably even better if you think of the odds… 🙂 !
And that’s not all — in the upcoming weeks Wise Bread will also be giving away free Turbotax software as well as featuring certified financial professionals to answer questions in their forums.
Sounds like some really awesome things going on at Wise Bread with all this non-stop action. So I hope you decide to check out the financial tools, information and activities going on over there. I’ll be there stuffing a few ballots into their boxes. 😉

Great to hear that this blog is getting even more love at other sites!
Congratulations!
Thanks for spreading the word SVB! We look forward to hanging out with you and your readers. =)
Thanks folks! Here’s to a great forum launch :). I noticed some interesting threads there, ranging from a personal finance battle of the sexes to discussion on Britney Spears ;).
SVB, I like the new layout. And good luck with your contest!
PS. I’ve joined!
Teejay, glad you liked the new format. Stay tuned as there are more changes afoot.
I’d love to hear feedback on the layout, which is all an experiment at this point :).
