It appears that Bulletproof Web Design is now available, and I've received a few reports that copies are starting to be spotted in stores and received via various online booksellers. To celebrate, I'm launching a little contest where you can win two books, a t-shirt, and some icons.
Like the original contest that was run last year, I'll be gathering comments in which to randomly draw numbers from. Read on for the details.
How to Enter
Entering the contest is simple. Your comment number is your lottery ticket (1 comment per person, anonymous comments won't be counted). So, the idea is simply to get a pool of comments in which to draw three winners from.
Your comment will attempt to answer the following question (brought on by a recent dinner conversation with friends): Who is the present-day equivalent to Huey Lewis? This isn't a trick question, but rather an attempt to clarify whether Mr. Lewis was an anomaly. Who, in 2005 is a middle-aged, awkwardly goofy, sports-loving rock star who, despite all that, wrote undeniably catchy songs? I dunno. Perhaps one exists, and perhaps one doesn't. Feel free to look as deep into this question as you'd like. Have I lost my mind? Maybe. But remember, we just need a large pool of comments.
The Prize Packages
Three winners will each receive the following:
- 1 copy of Bulletproof Web Design (signed, if you'd like)
- 1 copy of Web Standards Solutions (signed, if you'd like)
- 1 t-shirt of your choice
- 1 icon set of your choice
How to Win
I'll draw two winners by randomly generating two numbers from the final comment pool. Additionally, I'll pick one lucky winner based on the comment itself: the best, most creative answer.
Entries will be accepted until Wednesday, August 17 at 3:00 PM, after which I'll announce the winners. Good luck!
Update: We've reached the contest entry deadline, and comments have been closed. Thanks to the 713 people who commented! The winners will be drawn, chosen and announced within the next day or two.
