July 22, 2008 at 00:18Thank you guyz for participating.
I just tested the subscription form and it work fine, maybe the problem from your email adress, It should give a ” Complete Subscription Page ” when you have to enter the captch to confirm the subscription and after that you should receive a request to confirm your email, that’s all.
If you still have a problem, please use the Subscription form in the side bar under the Recent Post tab.
Now we will make a small statisque:
– Adsense Alternative: 1 Entry
– Make Money: 1 Entry
– Bunny: 3 Entries ( Twitter+Comment )
– MZG: 1 Entry
– Vladan: 3 Entries ( Twitter+Comment )
– Chris: 4 Entries ( Techn+Comment )
Who’s James Seligman following me in Twitter? Please when you complete more than one task plus than commenting, indicate it via comment that I can track your entries.
Don’t forget to blog about the contest and to subscribe to the RSS via e-mail or your favorite RSS reader, that will help you to multiply your chances to win something from the prizes.
Good Luck.
