Hey, geeks need friends too! Even quirky computer nerds and geeky IT guys like us at Claris want friends. We go to Tweetups. We “Like” your Facebook posts. We blog, we Digg and we hunt down the Starbucks Foursquare Mayor like a bloodhound (only have 1,792 checkins to go!). So as this holiday season approaches, we’re looking at our Twitter followers and our Facebook fans and think, “Man, we want more friends! Who are we going to share all this sweet-awesome, fun, tech content with?” So since we like people AND technology, we decided we’d give away some sweet technology TO some people. Now, you may be asking, “What kind of technology?” Good question. Just keep reading.
The Free Sweet Gadgets
Sorry, no iPads were included in the planning of this gimmick. These TV toys are some of the hottest on the market and represent a swift shift in the technology we use to watch TV and surf the web. We’ll be reviewing each of these and giving them away like crescent rolls and candy canes.
Here’s how it will go down. You can enter two different ways:
2. Like us on Facebook [Claris Networks, LLC]
It’s that easy. What can we say? We’re simple people. *
Dates of the Giveaway
We’ll be announcing the winners on the following days. Be sure to check our Facebook, Twitter or Blog to see if you won!
1. Thursday, November 25 (Thanksgiving) Roku
2. Friday, December 3rd Boxee Box
3. Friday, December 10th Logitech Google TV
4. Friday, December 17th XBOX KINECT
So in the words of one Kip Dynamite, “Yes, we love technology. But not as much as you, you see? … (But we still love technology).” Good luck!
*By the way, we’re not into massive, national attention. We just want to get to know our community better. We’d love it if we actually KNEW someone these will actually go to. So tell your friends!
**We will include each follower and friend in each giveaway. There’s no need to retweet a billion times.
