Branson's Think Big contest

UPDATE 06/24/05: It's hard to find the definitive answer, but a comment on theunofficialyahooweblog says that www.staircycle.com won the contest.


I only just found out about Richard Branson's partnership with Yahoo! on their Think Big contest, where the lucky winner will win 10 million free ad impressions across the Yahoo! network.  One report values that at a cool $1,000,000 - yes, one million dollars. (Don't you have to pay tax on prizes?)

They are looking for a company/product that has nationwide appeal, and will help the winner promote themselves in Times Square for a day. Should be fun!

So, of course, being the optimistic opportunist that I am, I entered. Personally I think that OurLittleNet, Inc would be a perfect fit.

Just let me know1 if you have any messages to pass onto Mr. Branson...

1 Yes Chris, the ability to post comments on this blog are less than a week away now. *grin*
